How can that five letter word, so simple in pronunciation with just one syllable, affect so much of the world? Because, big things fit into small packages. :0)
(Ella and Lindsey got their faces painted. Gabriel opted out of that saying that face paint made him itchy. tee hee)A miniature Snickers, for instance. Little package, big happiness. :0)
A kiss, a newborn's first cry, child laughter, a brand new pair of shoes, clean linen scented candle, my digital camera....you guessed it. Big happiness.
As I posted in my last blog post, our youngest little one, Ella, turned three. Out of all the pictures I took of her on her big day, this has got to be my favorite. While it's slightly blurry, her expression is priceless, and will never fail at producing a smile on this mama's face.
