Things That Make You Smile

What makes you smile? Does it have to be big things or is it the simple things in life? For me those simple things in life are the big things. I get so busy with my everyday life routine that I find I take more and more things for granted! When I do that, I miss out on so much! I had lunch today with a friend. What wonderful conversation we shared and a few laughs. As I was walking out the door, in walked a friend of mine that I grew up with, yet seldom see. We greeted each other with huge smiles and opened our arms for a warm hug! See, those kind of things make me smile! Now, I must admit that my son is what makes me smile the most! Even when he is being a "typical little boy" and I feel I am going to give him away to the Salvation Army (*chuckle*)....he makes me smile! My family, my hubby, my Mom, my friends! I like to smile, don't you? Do we do it often enough? I seem to be trying to smile more than I did....it really does make for a better day! Lately my girlfriends and I have been making more girl time together. We have such a good time! Eddie said he liked me spending time with the girls ever so often because it makes me a nicer person at home! (*chuckle*)....it's just good medicine, I guess! Why does it have to be so hard to stop and take the time to enjoy the little things around us....the things that can mean the most. When there is a smile on your face, there is warmth in your heart and what better way to spend the day? SMILE and be blessed even in the smallest of occasions! Until later!
