Happiness challenge re: seven cherubs

Thanks to Naomi http://www.sevencherubs.com/2011/04/happiness-project.html for the chance to just reflect that there is always happiness every day. Sometime lots but most times small but meaningful. Just need to stop and remember the day spent and what made you happy. To everyone that took the time to share your happiness, it has been just great and amazed me how  many different ways and simple things that make us all happy..cheers everyone..

Now I need to go get my Polly Dolly done that I missed on Thursday over at http://www.danimezza.com/search/label/Polly%20Dolly 

APRIL 10th - My son Zac made a chocolate fudge cake, I had a huge helpings with my cuppa tea,
because I try not to indulge in such things, this made me very happy (must try not let the scales ruin this little bit of happiness)

APRIL 11th - Actually had to leave the house today to find a little before the day was out, so I went down road to a dear friends to see all her Bali photos, we thought we would save our pennys  for next 4 yrs and she would go again with me and hubby *smiling*, happiness right there.

APRIL 12th - Today my little piece of happiness came late in day, having a slight headache from lack of sleep, I snuck off after I got kids from school and had 20 minute Nannie nap.

APRIL 13th - Happiness started when I woke this morning, YAY..was it because Hubby's RDO and I didn't have to get dressed and do the school morning, I got to finish the book I was reading for last 3 days with my cuppa tea while hubby did a early morning load of wash..anyways HAPPY today.

APRIL 14th - Is it sad that polly dolly made me so happy today? shopped for 3 hrs.Is it a good thing that it took up that much of my day? meh, yep. I will take happiness when ever and for as long as it lasts.

APRIL 15th - Happiness comes today when school is out for a week and a bit, no lunches,uniforms,morning drills and a little sleep-in.

APRIL 16th - First taste of a Easter egg, when will chocolate not make anyone happy.

APRIL 17th - Full day of playing sims3..lots of happiness when my sim achieved lots of her goals. All the kids who played sims today got far in the game, awesomeness.

How much do I love nanna naps!! Ahhhh. If only there were more of them. ;)
Craft is big in our house, so I related to that making you happy. My happy craft moment from April was getting a pipe cleaner and bead bracelet!! Really enjoyed looking at your photos too!

Oh my how can you remember back so far. I can't even remember this morning, let alone yesterday or last week (That's a blurr now in the memory banks). Great post sis and it really is the little things that make us happy. The Westfield swap was this morning, thank goodness Lyn told me about it yesterday so that I could get my butt into gear and have something finished by today 'Seven Deadly Sins'. I'm running on over drive atm and I need to go and find something to eat. Jenz been coming back again as an art student for the past couple of Sundays.
Happy Birthday Greg for the 5th, I did remember on the day, but forgot to ring you. I know I'm totally hopeless. I hope you had a great day!
Love Always Sis

This is a wonderful happiness list. Thanks so much for taking part in our project. I so love that you get to have naps, relaxing time out moments and get to catch up with friends. So great to see that you got spoilt for Mothers Day and I so hope that happiness comes your way in the future. Naomi x

Wow, what a fantastic list. You are amazing. I found you via Naomi's linky and I can't believe you have eight kids and time for craft. Just so inspirational. I'm following immediately and vow to not complain about my three ever again. LOL. x

I'm back - for some reason I can't see your followers button right now, but I'll be back soon to follow away. x
