Happiness is....


Finding this little sign at Ross for $3.99...

The color red...

Feeling peaceful moments throughout your day...

Sleeping in Sunday mornings with your husband...or Sunday afternoon naps if you don't get to sleep in...

Having your husband cook a delicious dinner for you and the kids...

Finding a new idea to improve your life...

Your kids all getting up on time and going to school without complaining...

Your kids cleaning the whole house for you...(hey, we can dream, right)

Getting a book in the mail that you ordered online...

Having money in the bank account and not worrying it's going to bounce if you put gas in the car....

Realizing your life has not been struck by personal tragedy and being grateful for being spared that yet...

Building your mind, learning new things, learning about the world and it's people, the good and the bad...

Warmth and the sun when it brings it to your life...

Reading your kids their bedtime stories...

Having your girls actually get along and listen...

Having a peaceful quiet moment to oneself...

Going out with friends...

Going out with the husband...

Having someone stop by just to chat...

A nice comment from someone online...

A funny movie or video shared online...

Shopping and finding good deals (related to #1)...

How about you, what's going on in your life that makes you happy right now?

What?? Did you embellish the sign? You must have - it is in PERFECT style with you!

So... for me, what makes me happy right now is remembering the pattern for forgiveness, hearing nice things about me, feeling hope, enjoying chill time at the end of the day with just my husband, a cuddly chunky baby, having my toddler speak back and forth with me and preparing to go on to counselor training next month, taking me further along my teaching path.

I am happy you are feeling happiness!

Adhis, no, didn't alter it, that's why it sparked this post, serendipity. I'm so happy for you that you are taking steps toward what you WANT to do.
