Okay...I'm having a hard time keeping up with this blog. My plan was to post 1-2 times per week. But I am just so busy with Liam these days! He is crawling all over the place, climbing the stairs, eating like a champ, chattering, making faces, laughing and such. Basically, if there's a choice between snuggling with our little peanut or writing my blog, Liam has the trump card.
But with a new year comes new goals. And one of my goals is to actually post to this blog 1-2 times per week! As much as I love spending all of my time with Liam, I also need to do some things for myself. And adding to this blog is something I enjoy, even if no one is reading it. It's a release for me. A way to get my thoughts on paper (well...on screen).
I've decided to start a 'daily smile' journal. I feel so fortunate to live within the life I have. A wonderful husband and son, great families, two loving kitties, a warm and comfortable home, food in our fridge, fresh water to drink and take a bath in, a dependable car. And it's the small things, the things that make me smile every day, that are just as important.
I want to make sure I acknowledge what makes me happy each day. So, as part of my blogging goal, I'm going to post my list of 'daily smiles' at the end of each week.
So, here's my first list of 'Daily Smiles':
