Spring has sprung
I don't think I've ever looked this forward to spring. I'm feeling a sense of renewal, excitement and there's even a bit of pep in my step. Winter really got to me this year. I definitely suffered from S.A.D. (season affective disorder). Was in a funk, but who cares about that now because I am feeling back to my old self!
I don't need more reason to celebrate life other than to be happy with today. HAPPY SPRING!

Enjoying the little moments
Recently, my mind has been on the topic of happiness. What defines happiness? What makes me happy? If I'm unhappy, what can I do to turn things around?
There isn't one answer. While I'm figuring it all out, I have learned to appreciate the small moments.
A few days ago, we had about a foot of snow. Schools closed. Our dojang was closed. CJ waited until the snow was pretty much done falling to go out and use the snowblower. We bought one earlier in the winter season and it was the first time using it. I wanted to see it in action. While CJ was getting it ready, I opened the front door. Luckily, we installed a storm door, so we could enjoy the outside view without the cold getting in.
As CJ was clearing the driveway, Christopher was staring, watching him quietly and intently. As Christopher was watching CJ. I was watching Christopher. Time stood still. I was fully enjoying this moment. He was so intrigued by what his daddy was doing. The noise the snowblower made had him saying woo woo wow woo. He must've stood there for 10 minutes. For an 18 months old toddler, that's a pretty long time.
That little moment made my day.
