What brought this on?

I had a whim and decided to act on it. I knew if I didn't do this now, I wouldn't do it. I have another blog and it's been fun, but it wasn't very fulfilling. I never post on it unless I have a big story to tell. Well, I wanted something I could post on every day. Somewhere I could write down all the little things. You see, I'm a big believer in little things.

The little things are what make the good days good. The little things help me get through my day when I'm having a bad one. I don't need to go to Disney Land to have the best day ever. I just have to open my eyes and look around.

So here's the plan. Every day (at least the weekdays) I'm going to post a little thing. Something that just tickles me. Maybe you won't understand why it tickles me. Maybe it will make your day brighter. Hopefully it will make you look for your little things. These posts won't be very long, but they will be there. (If this sounds a bit like 1000 awesome things, it's because he inspires me, but I won't be able to write like him.) Then I can finally do what my wonderful sister has been telling me to do and print this out every year and have these little things with me forever. So here goes with day one...

Last night I was up way too late! I had tons of fun and I'm glad I went out, but boy am I tired today! I just can't seem to wake up fully. Poor Jack has been keeping himself busy all by himself and he just looks bored. He decided to just come and sit by me while I was working on my blanket and I beeped his nose. He smiled to I squished his cheeks while making a funny noise. He thought that was funny too. Pretty soon we had a noise for his forehead, his ears, his belly button and his chin. We made our noises in sequence, then we mixed them up. He started giving my nose and cheeks noises. We were soon enough both laughing so hard we had to stop just to catch our breath. That kid just makes me smile.
