HAPPINESS...


We have an insurance company that has thought provoking and quirky signs on it. I had to stop and take this picture because of the TRUTH! So here are a few thoughts about where my happiness is....

* airports (not airplanes..I hate flying) because if I am at an airport I am going to visit children, children are flying in to visit, or can we say--- VACATION!

* sunshine (warm and bright on my eyelids or shining through the kitchen windows and warming the wood floor, my heart, and the entire house

* flowers (any flower is my favorite) I love flowers!

* GRANDSONS!

*****Colton and his sweet personality---spelling words on the phone, playing cards, his OCD, his cocky way of playing anything Wii and beating me, and his hugs!

*****Cannon and his loud conversations, his messy face when he eats something he really likes, his kindness to his preschool teacher, Miss Carla, his laughter as he rides his bike, and his shy way of kissing me hello or goodbye.

*****Crew and his sweet smell, his wide smiles, his cooey talk, waving his arms and kicking his legs, trying to stick his thumb and fist into his mouth, holding him close as he sleeps, and watching the way he looks at his brothers and parents.

* Any family gathering (best when Mom (grandma Char) is included (PERFECT WHEN OUR ENTIRE FAMILY IS TOGETHER...OH THE JOY!

* Being able to elbow when I play May I

* Reading or hearing a spiritual truth that makes the world a perfect place

* Any music that takes my mind and heart on a rollercoaster ride of memories

* JOHN SCOT WOLTHUIS! I still feel the butterflies....

* California Pizza Kitchen penne pasta with sausage and grilled onions and peppers....yummy!


**********I could go on for days, but you would stop reading so that will have to do for now.

Good reminder of happiness...I just wanted to add one...Happiness is when you find joy in the people you love and not material things! Heres to keeping true to yourself mom and dad!
