Sunday Morning – Happy is the word….

First — Happy Easter!! Nothing says “Spring” quite like Easter! When I was a little girl, my Mom used to buy me a pretty new Easter outfit – complete with a pretty new dress, white gloves, white ankle socks with lace, white shoes, white purse, and a pretty bonnet! My younger brother had to wear a suit – he looked nice, but it wasn’t a frilly new Easter outfit, like I had!!! I have several pictures of us over the years all doozied up in our Easter finery – all taken outside and most with big snow banks in the background! So – another reason to be happy is that today is Easter and I don’t see any snow out my window (although, if I was up home, that wouldn’t be the case)! Easter also marks the date that I can get out my white clothing! I know it isn’t as strict of a fashion rule as it used to be, but I was raised with the understanding that you don’t wear white before Easter or after Labor Day (excluding white shirts or tennis shoes)!!! So, I don’t!!! So – Happy Easter for all the normal reasons, but also because I’m happy to be able to start wearing some white!!!!

The girls are always happy, but I do believe they are happier than usual today — not crazier or more energetic – HAPPIER!! Katie is going around kissing everyone and dancing around the room with a big “smile” on her face; Megan is eagerly squeaking her toys to try to get everyone to play with her; and Amy is all wiggles and “smiles” while she kisses everyone and looks for wiggly snuggles…………..this isn’t terribly unusual separately, but for them to ALL be so happy and affectionate to each other at the same time is rare! There is always at least one that doesn’t want to be bothered or is irritated by the attention of the other two or jealous that one is getting more attention than the other two……..So – this makes ME happy, too — I get a big kick out of seeing them be so animated and loving!!! This morning, I have no doubt that I have three very happy doggies……….(not that there is ever much doubt there)!

The girls and I put on a rowdy concert of Broadway Show Tunes this morning to celebrate all the happiness…….which made us even MORE happy!!! They love it when we sing and dance around the house together………………frankly, so do I!!!

And the last thing to add is that I just got a phone call with an invitation to go out for breakfast! This isn’t unusual, either, but just the icing on the cake for an already very pleasant (and happy) day!!!! So, I’m off to the shower and to get dressed so I can meet my friend for breakfast — wonder where we’ll go to eat????
