Ever wondered how people manage to wake up on a daily basis and smile? How on earth with all that is going on they still manage to find a positive way? Well, wonder no more, these are people that know that the happiness is not a destination, happiness is a journey and is in the little things.

Recently I was described as "the woman who doesn't stop smiling, whether it rains or snows" It's not the first time I've been told that, in fact, I hear it nearly every day. But I have to say I have never really let that sink in. I simply was "the woman who doesn't stop smiling" I accepted it and I lived by it, because truth is, that's who I am.

This led me to think 2 different things:

Let me tell you the story of when I did some DIY magic.... I upcycled a coffee table (that I somehow managed to spoil by spilling an ink cartridge all over it.... how I did that is another story!)
Anyway, the point is that, as I was working my way through it, I started thinking how similar this was to what happens in our lives.

I recently heard someone saying a person had left the company, and they were all very sad to see her go.

Perhaps people think this is the done thing, that’s what you would say when someone leaves right? But then I let that sink in and I thought “what a beautiful thought to leave with”

Throw back Thursday, even tho is Saturday... but this memory popped in very clearly so thought I'd share!

I was sitting in the morning, enjoying the first few minutes of the day, sipping my cup of coffee and looking at my bump, which was growing bigger and bigger as the arrival of the little one was imminent, and I couldn’t help but surrender.

I surrendered to it all: the silence, the first lights of the day coming through the window, the smell of the coffee, the kicks, and the LOVE.
