and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder."
~G.K. Chesterton, 1874-1936

ReplyDeleteDotsie, A great photo with a true statement. I have been concentrating on gratitude as I lead the bible study based on Ann Voskamp book One Thousand Gifts. Thanks for sharing. Sylvia D.
ReplyDeleteI know Amy would have appreciated your "gratitude" post Dotsie, well done.
ReplyDeleteLove your round kitchen table and "five" table mats.
We have Windsor chairs similar to yours - I bought ours at a junk shop when we were first married and they're still going strong
The GK Chesterton quote is perfect for the last Five on Friday.
I enjoyed his 'Father Brown' books which are now on TV.
