Reasons to Smile....

I am smiling lately, not just smiling for the sake of being cute, like really really smiling. I love that feeling, like your whole body is radiating this amazing glow. Like you are amped on way too much caffeine and sugar and adrenaline is just oozing out your pores. I like this feeling.... If it only lasts just a short time, then I am grateful for it, if it lasts longer, hell yeah. I have mended fences with friends, made new ones and found a sense of inner peace... I can't have it all, not all at once, but it feels like life is moving in a good direction. So much to celebrate, so much to smile about. Whooo haaaaa, today is good. It is my twin monkeys birthday!!!! The big number 2!!!! They move from baby-hood to kid-dom, and I am lovin it.... They came along as an unexpected gift and changed my life quite dramatically. But they are my little partners in crime and the best lil dancers I have ever seen. They groove with me in the car, and sing along to Livin Thing with me in the shower. They wipe boogers on my sweaters, and grind crumbs into the carpet, and build the best lego towers on the planet. Sooo Happy Birthday my lil ones.... you guys are the sparkle behind my smiles!!!!!
