Happiness Is… {big firsts}

Somebody took a big step this month!  Jax isn’t the only one going to school!

Yup, Miss Em is now officially indoctrinated into the wonderful world of our local Waldorf school.  Today is her second day, so she is still sticking pretty close to me and Jax, but within the month I know I’ll be second fiddle to homemade buns and baby dolls.  I love being able to share this first step toward loving school with both my kids, and I know this is where they belong for as long as we can make it happen.

So, while all of you are reading this, I’ll be making memories and sharing a lovely morning with both my kids.  I only hope all of you are as lucky!

So, come one, come all!  Join us for an inspirational blog hop that celebrates all things happy!

The Happiness Is… blog hop is simply a place to come, link up a post (not your homepage!) that made you happy recently (anything but a giveaway or review) and share it with the rest of us!  Photos, recipes, crafts, stories, moments, and anecdotes are all welcome!  Come peruse other amazing posts and meet fantastic new people in the blogosphere!  The only rule is to please grab my button (right sidebar) and link back to me in some way, otherwise you won’t be able to link up.  That way more people will come and learn about this uplifting way to promote your blog!

Also, I will try to link back to my favorite post of the week on Twitter and Facebook every Monday after the link closes.  It could be you!  And don’t forget to peruse past favorite links in my Happiness Is Blog Hop tab above.  If you’re featured, your link will be up there forever!  Last week my family was stricken by the gnarly stomach bug and I became a human vomit rag, so blog hopping was low on the priority totem pole.  I hope several of you made the time to do so in my stead–it’s no fun if you link and run!

So, are you ready?  On your mark, get set, hop!
