Day 29 of Happiness.

Well, my little photo project has come to a close and I must admit that I will miss posting a daily photo. 28 days are a long time to think about what makes you happy. Trust me, I had to be creative and really scout out the things in my life that make me smile. I tried my hardest to include intangible things and not just post 28 pictures of my kids being adorable or a plate of French fries from 28 different angles. No, I really put some thought into this little project and discovered a few things about myself in the process. I already knew many of these realizations but it's been so refreshing to have a little reminder.

I discovered that being a woman
brings me happiness.
I've filled my home with girly trinkets
and I love to celebrate my femininity.

My home makes me happy.
I put alot of energy into injecting it
with color and sweet vintage finds.
I try to make it a bright and cheerful place to live.



Nature makes me happy.
Overgrown weeds and a tiny rock
collection made it onto my list.
I love to steal moments and notice
the beauty that surrounds me.
I am inspired by the world around me.



I love my crazy family
that is full of boys.
I admire the innocence of my children.
I celebrate that we love each other
unconditionally,
hug freely,
and experience life to it's fullest together.




I think that the most important thing that I learned about myself
is the most simple.
On Day 29 I realized what really makes me happy...

being me.

I've enjoyed this so much that I've decided to make it a weekly post. Every Tuesday I will post a photo of something that makes me happy and I'm going to call it "The Happiness Project". So, be on the look out tomorrow!

You should join in the fun and do it over at your Blog too. We'll take over the Blogsphere with happiness! Be sure to let me know if you post a photo over at your place. I'd love to stop by and admire it!
