The Secret of Life

I was listening to the radio on my drive home from the gym this morning and heard a Faith Hill song about the secret of life. So I started thinking about that thought and there are some very obvious things about my life that make it so rich-
1.communion with the Living God- truly, what would I do without his adoration of me, his friendship,rescuing,redeeming,sanctifying,beautifying in my life?
2. a fulfilling marriage- I told someone the other day that being a mother is my calling and my passion and marriage is my gift. That I get to live side by side with such an extraordinary person who is my rock,friend and love and even when the kids are grown and gone will be that-is there a greater gift?
3.a beautiful son- my heart melts every morning when I go into his room to get him up for the day and there he is smiling and laughing with his hair disheveled and talking his own little language, never dulls, that melt in my heart.
But I do think there are little things that are secrets to a happy life too that I will now make a tag- If you read this you have to write the 10 little things in your life that are making you happy right now...
1. Duncan Donuts coffee- the yummiest, smoothest coffee can now be bought at Target. Seriously-has made my coffee drinking in the mornings better.
2.Having one of my bestest friends in the whole world move in next door to me.
3. Having another life long friend living in my house with her husband and baby in utero(hopefully not for much longer)
