  • The Happiness Project {week 3}

    1

    We caught a glimpse of a huge bright pinkish orange rose right outside our kitchen door on Sunday.  It was big and bright enough that we could see it through the rippled glass windowpane.  Caught it just before the rain…

    With so much having been going wrong and being difficult here, it can be hard to focus on the little things that make me happy- like this rose, or the mangos in the tree outside.  Or even when my mom calls asking if there is anything I want at the crafts store (really?  she doesn’t even need to ask!!).

  • Happiness Project {week 2}

    This.  This kid makes me happy.  No, he’s not mine, he’s a friend’s kid.  But this kid can make me smile no matter how I am feeling.  He’s almost 3 and just keeps going and going.  We say he’s like the energizer bunny.

    Sometimes, when you pick him up while he is running, he keeps running in your arms, legs flailing, trying to run in the air.

    Sitting in his booster seat to eat, he’ll go “I’m trapped!  I’m trapped! Help me!!” and his mom will say he has to sit and eat a few more bites still.

    He asks his mom where me and my husband are regularly.  I stayed at his house for 6 weeks this summer, and now when I see him at church or elsewhere, and I say I’m going to go home, he asks if I am going to his home.  So cute!

    Thats my bit of happiness for this week!
