Happy List

I was thinking that since my last blog was so depressing, that I should make up for it by making a list of things that make me happy so you don't think that I am a psychotic, unhappy person. So here it is in no particular order...

Paula's Happy List:

1. Samuel and Nathaniel

2. Watching my children learn new things, and their reactions to them. Especially when Sam does or says something that just blows my mind.

3. Listening to "Break Things" by Limp Biscuit on my way to work at full blast in my pimped out mini-van. (after I have dropped off my kids, of course)

4. Eating Blue Bunny's "Super Chunky Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough" ice cream in bed.

5. The t.v. show Scrubs

6. Watching dads with their kids
