Happiness

Okay, I know I'm not the only one out there who has a tendency to dwell on the negative. Am I right? Well, this blog helps me to see the good in my life because, well, I try to think of things to write that would make others smile, laugh, etc. And this week, while on vacay with the fam I heard my mom say the most wonderful thing. She asked James, 3, and Nae, 4, "What's our favorite word?" and after seeing their curious looks my mother replied, "Happy!". You know, this got me thinking. Why wouldn't that be our favorite word? Isn't that how we all want to feel? Shouldn't that be what we strive for? Here are a few of the happy things that have happened to me recently:

• I had a magnificent 22nd birthday
• My parents were gracious enough to pay for me and the boyfriend to go to Panama City for 3 days
• I got a sun tan
• I got my Kings of Leon tickets in the mail
• I am going to get a manicure (NOT a do-it-yourself)
• Woke up to a very funny, very thoughtful belated birthday card 
• Movie date tonight, even if it is Harry Potter

These are just a few of the wonderful things going on for me now and I hope this has you thinking about the good things in your life! 

Happy Blogging,
