Happiness Is...

My family and I went hiking the other day and I was thinking about true happiness. What does it mean to be truly happy?

I love to take pictures of everything, and I took this cute picture of my 4 year old. He is just happy! Even though he has juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, he is a happy little kid. Granted he has bad days, but who doesn't? I love that about kids, they just don't let things get them down! They might get upset and people might do things that frustrate them, but they usually brush it off and keep going. Kids don't normally hold grudges or stay mad forever. That is just so cool!

I am so grateful for the wonderful outlook that my kids give me each day. They bring so such pure joy and happiness into my life. Happiness is seeing good in things, and my family is definitely a GOOD thing!
