Happiness. Joy. Smiling.

These words are music to my ears. I wanted to make a post about a few things that make me happy…things that bring me joy on the daily.

  1. Being outside. Before I had Hunter, I never really spent time outside, and I didn’t really care to. BUT, now that I have a child, I want him to explore the outdoors and not be cooped up inside all day. FACT: Hunter LOVES being outside! He loves to run around and explore. I love to watch him in those A- haa moments when he discovers something new…like dirt between his toes and the squirrels that run up and down the backyard trees. I have to remember that when Hunter goes outside and discovers something that it’s a first for Hunter. It might be old to me, but to him, it’s magical.

  2. Letting Hunter be a little. He’ll be a grown up soon enough. It’s time to let him be a child. I’ll never get the baby moments back with him, so I need to make the most of it and that means taking time to enjoy Hunter being baby Hunter. It’s hard sometimes. I don’t want to wish him into the next stage, but that’s so easy to do sometimes, right? I just need to soak up all the “now” and leave the “later” for tomorrow. No need to be a time thief.

  3. Target. It makes me happy. Plain and simple. I don’t know if it’s because I can smell that movie popcorn the minute I go through those front automatic doors or if the baby and “me” clothing sections are so tempting with their adorable clothes. It seems that no matter what size I am…maternity or junior or women’s, I can always find something that works. Always.

    It’s the simple things that make me happy. Keep life simple.
