It’s the little things in life like…

Adding bacon to just about anything (like this yummy Egg Salad Sandwich)

Finding the thing you thought you had lost

Getting together with friends you haven’t seen in a while

The TV Show So You Think You Can Dance

Actually having some spare time to sit down and read a magazine (I think I only read one all school year!)

…that make me smile just a little bit brighter!

I hope each and every one of you have a very happy weekend!

It’s the little things about my Mommy like…

The way that she will put on lipstick even if she is in the car on her way home (hmm I wonder where I got my obsession with lipstick from!)

Her amazing smoothie recipe and that she has made me one every morning since I got home from school!

The fact that she knows every word to Taylor Swift’s entire album and has a theory for which of the many boys in T Swift’s life each song is about

How she waits up for me to come home at night to make sure I get home safely

And of course all of her hugs and kisses (I missed those the most while I was away at school)

…that make me smile a bit brighter!

The little things about you among many big things are the reasons I love you so much, Mom. I am so happy to be home to celebrate with you this weekend! Happy Mother’s Day!

And to the rest of you moms out there, I hope you have a happy Mother’s Day too!

It’s the little things in life like…

Instantly clicking with someone (Tim – I’m talking about you!!)

Finishing a book

Going to Starbucks with my mom just like old times (we used to meet there every single day after school)

Turbulence during a plane flight…always makes it more exciting!

My bag being the first one off of the baggage claim

…that make me smile a bit brighter!
