I continue naming 1,000 gifts in 2012

3 Gifts round, April 1

238. The way my dog curls to sleep.
239. The tires that bear me to work.

242. The hair of wiser women.

3 Gifts surprisingly found, April 3
243. A beautiful song to sing - from a friend.
244. Three part harmony - how much I've missed it.

The gifts of
255. courage,
256. perseverance,
257. love,
258. loyalty,
259. excellence,
260. miracles.
