Happiness

Every spring, I feel my spirits lift a bit as the days get brighter, the days get warmer (in theory), the birds sing, and flowers bloom. There are a lot of flowers blooming here and it makes me smile whenever I see them because I love flowers. Because I can feel my spirits lifting, I thought I would post about happiness.

So, these are a few of the everyday things that bring me joy.

• seeing John and getting hugs and kisses from him
• knitting
• knitting with both cats curled up on my lap/legs sleeping near each other
• seeing flowers blooming
• a sunny day
• the sun actually warming the day (as opposed to winter when the sun means cold)
• seeing progress in children I treat
  
• wearing my knitted projects (I will post pictures of one of them later)
• sleeping in
• having Darshin wake me up by licking my nose, curling up near my head and purring while I pet his belly
• Tiffin almost jumping up to reach my hand as I go to pet her when I get home from work
• Tiffin curling up on my shoulder, purring loudly, while I pet her
• Meeting up with girl friends for coffee or dinner
• John cleaning the apartment and doing dishes
