Happiness is that first cup of coffee.
Happiness is having a healthy family.
Happiness is chocolate.
Happiness is getting a kite in the air without your child falling down.
Happiness is school days and a baby napping.
HAPPINESS is seeing your husband/daddy get off of his flight from Iraq safe and sound.
HAPPINESS is a family of four back together after almost 7 months.
We are so happy to have Mike home from his long deployment. I was crying before he got off of the plane. There were people waiting for flights crying right along with me! It was really great to see him!
Ryan was so excited to see him. He waved his American flag and Air Force flag for daddy. They have been best buds ever since. Carter kept telling him "bye, bye" for the first day. He is used to him now and also happy to see him.
The airport had volunteers waiting near baggage claim with a sign and flags. They thanked Mike for his service and they welcomed him home. My heart was full.
Happiness is paying off the van on Monday and buying a new car on Tuesday.
Since Mike returned, we are the proud new owners of a 2010 Honda Civic. It is a nice looking car and we are so excited about the gas mileage!
Happiness is losing your first tooth!!
On March 21, 2010, our 5 year old lost his first tooth! He was so proud. We cannot believe this milestone is here. When I first started talking about the tooth fairy, Ryan said he was going to "Put her in jail!" He did not understand why someone would come into his room and take his tooth. By the time she came, he was ok with the whole process. I think the fact that he got $5 helped! That amount will go down once more teeth come along, I am sure!
Enjoy!
