I have a lot to smile about every day.  It’s important to remind myself.

  1. From Jenn:

    I need to steal this idea for a post. I’ve been keeping a gratitude journal but I need to put it where I see it often!

    So the vacation is set? Can’t wait to hear about it.

    Was so fun seeing y’all the other day. Love seeing the different personalities of the kiddos and watching them with W.

  2. From Nicole:

    It was great, the boys are all so funny with kids. I am always happy to see how much they like other kids, especially little ones. We need to set another date. I thought the canvas flag could be cute with fingerprints for stars.

    I keep saying I am going to do this weekly, maybe every two weeks. I love journals, but at night it’s just easier to type.
