Little Reminders

There are always little reminders of things in our lives which we love.  Treasure.  Sometimes they show up in the strangest ways.  My front porch was given a second coat this week.  Just yesterday, the porch furniture was replaced.

Look at what I found this morning as I strolled across it. This Lego piece must have been wedged inside of the Adirondack furniture.

It is always fun finding these little reminders.  Treasures.  I suspect my grandson wiggled it into one of the screw holes in the furniture.  Or my granddaughter.  

My son used to do this.  He would tell me it was my "little treat."  He often did these treats when we would go to the movies.  He loved Skittles and would toss them in my popcorn when I wasn't looking.  He wanted me to have a surprise.  

It is those 'little reminders' in our lives that hold such dearness.  Finding them brings out wonderful memories.  I am the lucky one.
