The Happiness Project: Days 2 and 3

Day 2:  Yesterday was a good day!  My happiest moment was taking the kids to their yearly physicals and seeing how lucky I am to have healthy, semi-well-behaved, funny, social kids.  Sophie is in the 95th percentile for height and weight, and Daniel's in the 95th for height and 90th for weight.  We grew 'em big!  Sophie didn't need any shots, but Daniel had one (chicken pox) - he was such a trooper though, he watched the nurse give it to him and just said "Ow, that hurts!"  No tears.  :o)

Day 3:  Today was a little stressful.  Rain this morning, work was a little much at some points, and then bedtime...well...it is what it is.  But amid all of that, there's this image:

Daniel's class planted sunflower seeds at the end of the school year, and he's been talking all summer about how they're going to get big.  We didn't imagine they'd be almost as tall as the building though!  I was so glad we decided to check them out on our way to the park today, the kids couldn't believe their eyes!
