The Happy List #1

Browsing through old posts the other day, I remembered how much I loved writing the ‘Three Good Things‘ posts. Taking a little time each week to look back on the good things that had happened, giving gratitude for this life and slowing down enough to notice. So…. here’s the first of The Happy List. I...
