August Happiness Challenge

I found this little challenge on One Gal's Musing (thanks to McClendon Villa who is also, PS Annie, who knew?!) and decided to give it a go. I've got happy, but daily posts? We shall see. I do agree though, that talking/posting/reading about happiness can rub off on a soul and that's never a bad thing.

As is my usual style, I'm arriving late to the party. Odd though, since I'm never late in 'real' life. Ha! It was suggested that we mark our challenge posts with an icon. Something that means happy to you. I made this because- daughters and granddaughter.



There's nothing in the world that makes me happier than the people in that picture. I owe four 'happys'.

Happy #1: This little cutie who blessed our family on July 7:



Happy #2: These four who have been blessing my life for the last 31 years with more love, laughter, and joy than any mom could ever imagine!


Happy #3: This little love of mine that has been blessing me for the last 8 years:


Happy #4: These boys who make three of my girls smile and laugh instead of cry. Hey, and for the one who can no longer make one of my lovelies sad. Because she got rid of him. But I'm not putting his picture on here. :)  I wonder who will be the first to say something about the pup coming before the boys? LOL




Ok, that gets me started on the August Happiness Challenge!

Are y'all doing it?

  1. smiling pictures do spread the joy. Babies smiling (even if it is gas) are the best. I don't do well with posting daily. Every two, three, five days fits my pace better.

    1. I don't do well posting daily either. The nice thing about this little challenge is that it's your choice how many times you wish to post. Of course, if you put the word 'challenge' in the mix, I consider the gauntlet thrown. Haha! Yes, baby pix are the best! Especially when it's a grandlove. :)

  2. The pup has been in your life longer than the boys, so it's only fitting....

    I enjoyed your catch-up Happiness post, Pam!!

    1. Thanks! I agree. Of course, Evan (new daddy) was the first to mention it. But only because he read it here. LOL

  5. I'm so glad that you're joining us for this, Pam. :) Thank you for the double shout-out. I appreciate that very much.

    Oh your grand-daughter is so precious! I want one. Maybe some day.

    Your doggy is adorable. You mean puppies aren't supposed to come before boys? I always heard "fur before fellas". haha

    Your happies are wonderful. Have a beautiful day!
