Happiness


The Grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for. ~Allan K. Chalmers

I was watching "Men of a Certain Age" the other day and Ray Romano's character mentioned that he Googled the word "happy." This quote is one of the first ones that appear.

Even though Happiness month isn't until August, I googled it :) I'm going to focus on happiness in March. I haven't been blogging much lately and need something to get me refocused. I'll be posting something that makes me happy, hopefully each day, during the month of March.

I'm sure I should be able to at least come up with thirty, right? Why not start today!

One thing that makes me happy is snuggling with my baby in the morning. The rest of the day, I can't devote all my attention to the little guy, but from 8:00-11:00 it's just me and Ben. We usually make "our" coffee and oatmeal together before settling down in the La-z-boy to watch something we can clap along with, like Let's Make a Deal or The Price is Right. The snuggled don't last long, but he always comes back for "seconds."

Have a Happy Day and enjoy a snuggle!

I liked that quote too, although Men of a Certain Age can be kinda hard to watch sometimes...hate self-destructive types. You can never get enough hugs.

Because those snuggles don't last forever, I made sure I made the most of them when my daughter was a baby. Now we snuggle in different ways by words of encouragment, comfort, etc. :)
