Sometimes it’s important to pause and appreciate everything that is good in the world. Here is my list of what makes me happy.
Yesterday was quite an emotional day for our country. I focused on my girls instead of social media, since Annabelle and Ailey are a constant reminder of what is good and right in this world.
Want to a bit more of what makes me happy?
Being alive.
A slice of cheesy pizza with a crispy bottom and just-right chewy crust.
Sitting beside a roaring fire while the snow falls silently outside.
Baby giggles and gummy smiles.
Watching a beautiful sunrise or sunset.
Uninhibited dancing.
Christmas morning.
The worn pages of a library book or the crisp pages of a new book plus all the time (no interrupting chickens) to really settle into the story.
The first day of vacation.
When “Shout” starts playing at a wedding or family party.
Karaoke with my siblings.
Scalp massages at the hair dresser and foot massages at the salon.
Payday.
Being alive.
Sing it with me now… if you’re happy and you know it clap your hands. If you’re sad and you know it wipe your tears. If you’re mad and you know it stomp your feet.
So perfect for today!
Amen to the last one!
