JOY

A friend on Facebook reminded me that attitude is all about perspective.  She used Facebook to post 365 days of love.  I really enjoyed watching her year through her posts and pictures and enjoyed the little things she loved every day, even the bad days.  We now have 3 babies, an Au Pair from Germany, and a lot of wonderful chaos in our lives.  It's easy to get bogged down and focus on the negative.  But these little people are just so precious and wonderful and we really have SO much to be thankful for in life. 

So I decided to start my own little project.

Joy.  I really like the idea of joy.  Just saying the word fills my heart with happiness.  To me it encompasses love and happiness and that feeling that your heart just might pop from all the good things going on. 

Joy is defined as:
The emotion of great delight or happiness caused by something exceptionally good or satisfying; keen pleasure; elation.

I want to find a little joy in every day.  I want to take great delight in watching my little babies grow into kids.  I want to retrain my focus to all the wonderful things that are happening in our world. 

My mission: Create a daily blog with the sole purpose of recognizing the joy in my life. Here we go...
