Happiness…

There’s a quote framed in Zoë’s nursery that reads, “Today I’m going to be happier than a bird with a French fry.”

It’s a quote I found early on in my pregnancy, and I just love the idea- the carefree feeling of being so happy about the little things in life. The other day when my friend, Missy, and I were running at the park, we saw a couple of kids playing in the bright yellow leaves that had fallen on the ground. It was almost like they were ready to make snow angels out of them. They didn’t have a care in the world- they were smiling, laughing, gathering up all the leaves they could in their small hands, throwing them, and just overall, being happy to be a kid. There’s such purity in those moments- kids undisturbed by responsibilities and life’s stresses. Zoë shares those completely refreshing smiles at many times in her day; but, when she’s in a swing, wow, it’s unforgettable!

Maybe I should consider revising the quote to say, “Today I’m going to be happier than Zoë in a swing.”

Have a HAPPY Thanksgiving!
