i loved this book when i was a kid. i think if i had it now i'd love it even more. it reminds me that really, it's the little things, that make us smile the most.
today...
happiness is a watching a rain storm on the porch.
and a cup of afternoon coffee.
and the sound of giggling.
happiness is the end of a migraine headache.
and a hug from my boy.
and a toothless smile.
happiness is zoe getting up and ready for school with out much prompting.
and hearing "it went well today."
and watching her dose off in the car on the way home from a day at school, knowing how much that must mean to her and to me.
happiness is the sun coming out again.
and the sound of rain falling from leaves.
and the shiny diamond-like drops everywhere.
happiness is having no drama today.
and sparkly lip gloss.
and a full moon.
happiness is beginning a new book.
and reading an old poem.
and a phone call from a friend.
happiness is a pair of jeans.
and a lisacoris necklace.
and no shoes.
happiness is getting a letter.
and a cup of milk tea at night.
and snuggling with the one you love.
happiness is getting really muddy.
and then taking a bath.
and the sound of the bubbles popping.
happiness is remembering cool sand on bare feet.
and the sound of the ocean.
and finding a pretty shell.
happiness is doing the best you can.
and being still.
and listening.
happiness is being okay with mistakes.
and learning.
and letting go.
happiness is.......
