Hi there, hope you had a wonderful weekend. Mine was a turning point? (a good one) because after a long haul,? I finally was able to get out of the house the later part of the weekend….a big step. I am taking it slow but it was nice to finally step out, I was going a bit stir crazy! Yesterday,? my son and I? spent the day college dorm shopping which as I had said earlier in the week is bittersweet…..<\/p>\n

I so looked forward to spending the day together as it is always<\/em> a treat for me to spend quality time with my hunky “little boy” even though he towers over me and makes me feel like I just might be shrinking a teeny tiny bit:) We had a great day together, and he had me laughing more than he had me crying especially over his concerns about how he will figure out how to do laundry all on his own. Gotta love it. But then there were a few moments where his leaving in a few weeks hit me and hit me? hard and that was not so easy.<\/p>\n

It signifies the time is near and though it is very<\/em> exciting, it also means him going off on his own and I am going to miss him terribly. OK, I am going to stop? right this very minute and move along to the purpose of this post ….pictures that make me smile. Sometimes you need to take a slight departure from design, decor and such and just do a fun post to inspire and uplift and what a great way to start the week. Especially with all the sadness and grief happening in our world right now.<\/p>\n

These pictures remind you to cherish your children (and pets) every step of the way, savor and enjoy the beautiful seasons, celebrate even the smallest victories and find joy in the simple pleasures that are out there to be found just about anywhere. These pictures need no narration, you will see why……<\/p>\n

Hope these put a smile on your<\/em> face (OK I admit it and a few tears too, happy tears though) like the soldiers are always a no brainer, but also the amazing assistant dog,? the horse rescue picture and somehow seeing elderly couples always does it too.<\/p>\n

Wishing you a wonderful day and wonderful start to your week. I cannot believe we are already in August, where has this summer gone!! Someone reminded me yesterday that there are only? 141? days until Christmas……..yikes!? Thanks as always for stopping in.<\/p>\n
