A few years ago, my brother was in the musical "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown." While, I didn't get the joy of seeing him on stage, I was able to attend his wedding that was a short time after. Most people wouldn't catch how those things are connected. If you were there, though, you would have heard his amazing friends perform the song "Happiness" from the play.
Today, I woke up humming it. You can get it stuck in your head too if you listen to this link and skip to 1:32. I love the song, and love the idea of it, too. There are so many little things that happiness is!
Today, for me happiness is:
- cinnamon in coffee
- knowing I have a date tonight
- notes from my husband
- reading 'new' books to my kids (that we've had but put away to not get ruined by too little hands)
- lacy packing tape on a box I received in the mail
- being in the last half of a knitting project
- being able to do something that makes a difference ( please read through this and do the links at the bottom)
- open windows in my livingroom
- braids in curly red hair
- getting royalties for my book ( buy it here or on amazon)
- juggling balls lined up on the shelf
- supper in the tub (my equivalent of breakfast in bed...sort of)
- a teacher willing to invest in my son
-shining sinks
- off switches on loud toys
- decluttering
The list really could be endless. What's on your list today?

Soli Deo Gloria
