Over the past little while, I have been thinking about what my happiness is.
Tonight, I looked at my fridge door covered with some of the things that bring me much joy and remind me of what has made me who I am and helped me to get to this place.
I was looking at this sign (the one on the fridge with all the magnets around it - thanks Tiff, I still have this momento), and it got me to thinking.
Today's Happiness-
Here goes...
Orange or Apple-in-the-mouth smiles by Maria
Being a Mommy
Being a daughter
Reading my mirror of quotes/sayings for my morning pep-talk
Fresh flowers in the house (in the kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms!)
Skype dance-a-thons
Growing up with a great family
Watching Messages like this one, this one, and another favorite is this one
Flowers sent with my name on them from people I love
Being a sister and having sisters
Flowers on the front porch
Friends that have been around for over 25 years of my life
Hot-tubbing in the pouring rain
Knowing that someone was/is thinking of me
Nice emails that make me feel all warm inside and make my eyes get all teary
Running in the trees (for miles and miles and miles)
People that really care, I mean really care
Samples at Costco
My education
The two greatest running buddies (one that I push in a stroller and one that teaches me in so many ways every run)
BLUE skies with SUNSHINE
Making and working toward goals
Surging
Harvest time and all the domestic fun I can have with it
The stars and moon at night, and having Maria "ooh" and "ahh" at them
Learning new things
Praying and knowing I am heard
Maria giggles and hugs and kisses and sweetnesses
Tender mercies from God
Funny birthday cards
The knowledge that I am a daughter of a Father in Heaven that LOVES ME and KNOWS ME.
Sending notes and cards...and decorating the envelopes too
Fresh apple or peach cobbler
Music, the good stuff: the kind that either moves my soul or makes me boogie

Don't forget that great husband of yours:)We need to see you soon!
Meg Meg,
This made me shed a tear (or two).
I have to say first off I love you. Second off I love you. Third off call me we really need to plan a trip. What about Greece or even a spa retreat say...Malibu. Whatever we do lets make it good, lets make it relaxing:) Fourth off I miss you.
Like it or not your BFF for life.
T Diddy.
It's raining again, how about a hot tub adventure soon. And I must agree with Tiffany, I love you and your family.
I need to watch more Mormon Messages, quick and so uplifting.
A fine post! Just enough to make me teary again.
This totally made my day. I loved the videos a whole lot, very inspirational. Thanks for sharing this :) I love you
It is nice to take a small moment to reflect, to regroup, to rededicate and to realize how wonderful life really is. Each day holds a miracle. You are one of mine.
I love you Megan!
MOM
