Inspired by MamaKat’s Writing Prompt and Allison’s Thank You Journal, here is a list of things that are sure to put a smile on my face when I may or may not be feeling like smiling….
- Finding a $20 bill in the laundry
- Chocolate (eating it, smelling it, cooking with it)
- Hearing “Mommy? I looooove you!”
- Taking a really good picture
- Checking a big task off my to-do list
- Finding a great deal at the thrift store
- Snuggling with my baby 5 year old
- Good music
- Beautiful sunsets
- Hugs and kisses from my kids and hubby
What makes you smile?

Great list! Finding money in laundry is always the best. We used to have a small jar sitting in the laundry room for loose change. It would fill up rather quickly.

The perfect picture is like the give that keeps on giving. Every time you look at it you remember that moment in life. Which makes another day a better day.

Music is also a big part of making me smile. Sometimes it is a silly smile like when I want to break out in dance (when no one is looking) ot when it reminds me of a good memory. Chocolate is also a great way to bring a smile!
