Happiness

Sometimes we overlook the little things that bring us joy.  Sometimes we miss out on moments of happiness because we’re too busy to realize we’re in them.  Lucky for us, we have a couple furry creatures that remind us to slow down and enjoy the moment.

This weekend we took Coconut to a “green” (it was really brown) area of our neighborhood and let her run around.  I sat at one end of the grassy area and Mr. C sat at the other while we called Coconut’s name.  She ran back and forth between us, almost knocking us both over a couple times because she was THAT excited.  Mr. C got some great photos of her.  The look on her face is pure happiness.  With the busyness of the Christmas season, we all need to take a little time to do something simple that makes us remember what life is all about and count our blessings.  For me, ten minutes in the park with my happy puppy and smiling husband were a great reminder.
