The Happiness Project!

I tend to be a glass half empty type of person, pessimism and self doubt often creep in. I don't want to be the Debby downer and I know it is possible to change my tendencies. Sometimes it just seems like too much work.... for now I have the energy to try and I wanted to share an idea that popped into my head the other day that was an answer to my pleading prayers. Just one picture a day taken with my phone of something in my life that makes me happy and is positive. I've been doing this for about a week and I've found that my thoughts have become more focused of the good and positive and I can't take just one picture a day! I've realized that there is much in each day to be positive about and thankful for. Here are a few of my favorite happys so far: Livy my 4 yr old insists we hold hands when we nap together. She says it helps her fall asleep and in seconds she's out. I love her little hand and how it fits in mine. Katie has struggled with learning to read but with LOTS of practice we are making progress and I am proud of her! She helped dan read our scriptures and was able to read 2 verses on her own❤Graham LOVES fruit and literally eats it by the handful. This makes me feel like a good mom 😜I finished a thirty minute work out today and am trying to get stronger for hiking trips this spring and summer. And walk no out to see Tavin doing this, this morning makes my heart full. (Praying on his own to start his day right). I've started to share with my sisters and they send me pictures of their happy. The funny thing is, there happy brings me joy and helps me see good too!! So share ur picture of happy and positive with me! Start ur own picture journal of the positive.
