Happiness is...

Okay so the inspiration for my new blog name came from this blog. I love reading her blog and imitation is the best form of flattery right? She just does such a wonderful job at seeing the positive in everything especially the little things in our lives...and I like that! My blog however will not be like hers for many reasons...
1. I am not a great photographer like her. and
2. I am not a wonderful writer like her, but I'm working on it.
3. I am obviously not her. haha
 But thank you Kelle Hampton for inspiring me to be a better person as well as a better mother. Read her blog, it will change your life!

So every so often I will do a Happiness Is... Post where I will talk about where and How i have felt happiness in my life in sometimes the smallest of ways. Sometimes the small ways make the biggest difference don't you think? I am really excited about this. So after that intro here it goes.

Where do you find Happiness? Have you ever realized just how much happiness we have overflowing our lives? Seriously, OVERFLOWING. Especially if you look for it. These last few days have been hard for me because a sick baby means a very sleepy mom and when this momma doesn't sleep she gets cranky. sorry hubs. However, I have been blessed with so much these last few days and that is what has kept me happy.

Happiness is... dressing up Livvy girl in my favorite color! RED!
Even if her daddy hates the big flowers I put in her hair :)

I love those eyes! 
Happiness is...doing something small for my business but feeling so incredibly successful!
 Achieving goals no matter how small is such a fulfilling feeling. I read this book and I love it! You should all go read it, no seriously.

Happiness is... needing to call someone about something important but you can't find their number, and then miraculously they needed to call you that same day about something entirely different! 

Happiness is...receiving answers to prayers no matter how small the prayer or small the answer. Seriously such a blessing.

Happiness is...staring at little chubby feet!

Happiness is...gorgeous 80 degree weather on the first of April. The thrill of walking outside in shorts and a t-shirt to go on a walk and soak up the sun and the heat radiating in the air. How exciting to see the trees blossoming. It reminds me of the primary song "Popcorn Popping".

Happiness is knowing that it won't be too long before I can jump into this and knowing it will be super fun with a little one:

Happiness is...learning to enjoy the morning. I've never been a morning person, ever. But getting up with the girl has forced me to get up much earlier and it's amazing how much more I get done in a day and how much more accomplished I feel. I fill like giving myself a high five, in fact I think I will. Give yourself a high five if you got up earlier this morning!

Happiness is... laughing in bed with your husband over something so silly that you can't even remember what it was now. 


What is something that might seem small but that makes you happy?

Have a Happy Day!
