Surprise!
Alexandra surprised me by selecting me to receive the Happy Award! Thank you, Alexandra! I do generally think of myself as a pretty happy person, but mostly I think of myself as a very LUCKY person.
In accepting the award, I am supposed to list ten things that make me happy. It's kind of hard just to pick ten, so here are the ones that pop into my head right now:
- My kids
- Sunshine
- A good run
- Hearing a favorite song and being able to sing it out loud or dance to it (not always appropriate!)
- Watching old family home movies
- This video
- Crossing the finish line
- Being able to play a piano piece without too many mistakes
- A hot cup of coffee on a cold snowy morning
- Connecting with friends, new and old, close by and far away, over a cup of coffee or via blog, phone, mail, Facebook...
Finally, there is one more thing - I get to nominate someone else for this award - and the happy person is my blog friend Fran up in the Netherlands, for her positive attitude and perserverance!

What a great happy list! I really wish I knew how to play the piano. It sounds so fun (I can play the violin, so maybe someday I will learn!)
I had never seen the dance video...what a great way to start my day :)
Have a great one!
Awesome List Amy! Wow, I'll have to watch the video when I'm at home...

I hope for both of us that the stupid snow will soon be gone and we can go out running again!
Awww, great happy list! I love this little meme going around. It's lovely to know what makes people happy.
Thank you for sharing your happy list with us! I enjoyed watching that video, a great pick me up as I start my day!
