I'm bumping up this old thread of Ready's so we can share some happy moments. If we can think of one or two different things each day that we are really glad about, we can focus on our good times rather than our muddled MLCer.

Today I'm happy because the shine is shining and it's warmish (22ºC). My students were well behaved and seemed to enjoy their lessons, and I enjoyed being a teacher. I have an invitation for lunch tomorrow with a new friend.

I'm excited about my trip to see the Phili/NYC LBS's.  I wish we could all zap ourselves there...or anywhere for that matter....no need for it to be local if we can go anywhere... ;D ;D ;D

I'm happy, as stated on my thread, because my D8 has progressed as a reader this year and is excelling but I am most excited because she loves to read...always has her nose in a book..I think it is a positive distraction for her at this time.  I also feel she sees this as a big part of herself and a connection to me. 

I'm happy spring is coming and the ground is getting softer and I see daffodils peeking through  the ground.

I"m happy that I have three beautiful healthy children that are a reflection of my love of life, living and creativity.

My dad sent me a birthday card. He'd put a few bucks in there and had written that it was a meant as a little 'chink of light' in dark times. He'd written that he and my mom think about me and pray for my family often. He is in his late 70s and has to use a scooter to get to the post office. It means a lot. Made me smile. Something to keep - he is an old school carpenter - rarely 'shared' his feelings.

Amazing story!!!! Love it

It is the little things that we should look at instead of over analyzing stuff and waiting for them to make us happy!!!

Give that little one a big squeeze :)

So glad you have her there to put a smile on your face.

Beautiful people don’t just happen
I got this very beautiful quote by Elizabeth Kubler Ross in an email and I just had to share it with y’all..

Beautiful people do not just happen…
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have
known defeat,
known suffering,
known struggle,
known loss,
and have found their way out of the depths.
These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern…
Beautiful people do not just happen…
