Life’s little celebrations


Believe it or not, this is my 100st post. And that is reason to celebrate!!

To be honest, I hadn’t really noticed it myself and was not anticipating this post until just now. I’m not one for celebrating round numbers and throwing parties. Even birthdays usually just pass by without anything special, because I find that dates and number do not really mean anything.

It is today that counts! And I like to make most of every day, with lots of things to celebrate, be grateful for and simply be happy about. So, for my 100st post, I will list here 100 other things to celebrate than my 100st post. (Just don’t celebrate it all with a chocolate…)

    Those are some beautiful things to celebrate! When you write it all out like that it makes you wonder why we ever whine and complain about anything when we have so much to be happy about. And congrats on your 100th post!
