The Things I Love!

So yesterday and today were kind of hard days for me. I have a lot of decisions to make in the next few months that are not easy ones. Today I have been a little depressed and swimming in a world of self-doubt. I stumbled upon my friend's blog which reminded me that even when things get tough...there are always things that make you smile!

So in honor of her post...I am doing my own. I encourage all my blog readers to respond in a comment and let me know some of the things you love! I also encourage all my blogging friends to blog about something similar to this! It definitely leaves you feeling warm, fuzzy, and just happier than you did when you first started it out! :)
