rare moments like this

the crackle of the fire, the hum of the dishwasher doing work FOR me, the smell of dinner in the crockpot, while all 4 of us are near by but silent and involved in our own things

I hurt myself shoveling snow-thankful for compassionate children @ 3 and 8 yrs old who OFFERED and helped me get some wood from outside gathered to keep the fire going for now

Bliss is watching DH play with 3yo son in lazyboy-giggling & cuddling& smile on DH's face when he said ILY daddy

This Blogs Inspiration

I just wanted to give a shout out to my friend J, and say thanks for the idea. I was inspired by her "Reasons for Happiness" Blog where she posts through the week the things that bring her happiness. I think it is a great idea and a good way to stay positive, live in the moment, and be mindful of those moments when they happen.

You can follow her Happiness blog too at http://reasonsforhappiness.blogspot.com/
