Finding Happiness

This morning as I put through my 129336th load of laundry, I looked at the clothes piled around me and smiled. My happiness is not found in a Pinterest worthy laundry room or a perfectly tidy house. 

Today my happiness came from quietly rocking a baby girl who was wanting extra snuggles.

It was in gathering empty jam jars with my oldest boy to refill.

The distant giggles coming from the hay loft where the children spent the morning playing.

A good chat with a friend while picking raspberries.

Picking homegrown veggies from the greenhouse.





The smell of homemade raspberry jam filling the quiet after everyone was tucked in.

Stemming beans with my girl late at night while watching a favorite show together.

Pausing to enjoy the sunset after another full day.

Look for those moments that make your soul sing each day.
