I’m really enjoying doing 52 Weeks of Happy! At first I kept forgetting about it and had to scrape around for photos but I’m a bit more in the swing now and I’m making sure to photograph things other than a certain not-so-little-now baby.
This week the things that made me happy were:
1. Finding cards designed by my friend Katherine in my local economically priced card shop (and thinking how funny it would be to send them to her children who are 1 and 3 this year!)
2. Sunshine streaming through the pretty window on the landing (less so the dust & dead flowers)
3. Turning the pram into a pushchair was happy sad – sad because of the step away from babyhood but happy that he can now see out and it much happier in it. (Less so the cost of buying the flipping cosytoes/footmuff. It’s worth it I think though. Also the conversation about “footmuff” with my brother where he thought we were talking about something rude was hilarious.)
4. Sending “Happy Post” to people! I am trying to do this more this year. I love to receive nice post = I should send nice post and make other people happy too.
Love those birthday cards! The elephants are just soooo cute.
Glad you are enjoying doing 52 Weeks of Happy, it’s a lovely record for the future.
We have a “Happy Thoughts” pad in the kitchen and encourage the kids to write down things that have happened that make them happy – it’s lovely to read back through them although some of them make no sense now – one entry just says “carrots”….
Love, love, love. Those cards are gorgeous! Talented friend! Every time I see your sun catcher I get a case of the wanties! Love your stroller! We have an Orbit. When I changed it from the bassinett to the infant seat I cried. Now, on the verge of needing the bigger seat I’m in shock and Ready to cry! And ohhhhh but I love mail! Even bills so long as it means there’s post in the box. I need a penpal, lol.
Those cards are just lovely! You’re right about happy post too, give to receive and all that! Lovely happy things :)

Such happy moments I love them, thank you for sharing! I have been meaning to write letters more this year … I must make time! xx
Huray for happy post!!
There is something special about a letter isnt there. My grandaughter, 8, has started writing to my Mum, 80, and works out when she can expect a reply and waits with bated breath for her own letter to arrive!
