Things making me happy this morning:
The sound of legos and playmobil coming from the other room. And knowing which child is playing although I haven't set eyes on her yet this morning.
Sleeping in my own bed last night (just home from spring break).
The anticipation of three full, unplanned days before we return to a normal routine.
Crisp morning temperatures and a garden that grew a bunch over the last six days.
Being home in time to bring the lilacs in, even if they may be past their prime.
Thinking about binding a quilt. And starting another one.
Having the good sense to have grocery shopped last night as soon as we got home.
Checking the hourly weather and planning a run.
What's putting a smile on your face this morning?
smiling cause it’s FRIDAY!!!!
Your post helped me to remember to be grateful for the joys in life. Sometimes I get busy with doing and forget to take a moment to feel the joy. Thank you for your post today. I am smiling because you shared your happiness.

Sounds like great things to smile about. Shopping on your way home is always the best thing to do before you hit the house. I never want to leave for a few days afterwards.
You have lilacs already? *sigh* they are my favourite!
Lilacs! Ours should start blooming in a couple of weeks. Today I’m happy that it’s Friday and that there’s sunshine. Glad the vacation gave you the break you needed. xo
My grandson is spending the day with me… and that always makes me smile!Debi
Happy it’s Friday, the hubby is off early and napping with the 2 year old as I had out the door for a run π Have a lovely weekend!
Oh goodness, thanks, Erin!
I felt downright foolish for going grocery shopping, the same day as a 15 hour road trip, at the end of our spring break. And yet… And yet! Having a fridge full of 3 (!) bags of fruits and vegetables made the next week. At the time, it was the obvious right thing. Still, the validation is lovely π
Welcome back. Enjoy these next three…
Oh, my, lilacs! Reminds me of the home I grew up in. Today I’m smiling at rows and rows and rows of running stitch. So simple. Still good.
Beautiful! Sounds like all wonderful things for a Friday π
Your list made me happy. Life is wonderful.
I brought in some lilacs the other day and my dining room smells just amazing!! Love it!
Oh, Lilac! Big smile. π
your post made me smile. So calmly, positive and thankful…
Waking up early at 7am and hearing my parents pottering around ( i have just yesterday returned home from studying overseas for a couple of years.)
OK – I need a lilac!! We have none on our property…
Lovely fabrics! I’m sure your girls will love their new clothes.
