You Capture - HAPPINESS
There are just some things in life that make you happy and make you smile just because. You Capture challenge for this week was to try and capture some of that happiness. Here are a few things that made me smile this week.
I went to the Toledo Zoo last week and saw this flower on a tree in one of the gardens. It was so simple yet so complicated...and breathtakingly beautiful.
Something that I see everyday that makes me smile is Emma, our 6 year old dachshund. I love how she sneaks under any blanket laying around...but not completely!
Sometimes she wants her but left uncovered.
Sometimes she leaves just her nose out.
This is a face that brings me happiness every single day. I love her so much and I am blessed to have been her mommy for her whole life. She makes me feel like I will be a good real-life mommy when the time comes.
What happiness did you capture this week? Come over and share with Beth and her happy capturing crew!

So this has nothing to do with You Capture, but I was just reading your profile (no, not in a stalker-ish way!). Just go for the baby...if you wait until you've figured yourself out, the baby will never happen. PLUS the baby is a big help in figuring yourself out--though not always for the better. I found out just how impatient and selfish I am when I had kids. Working on that... :0) I know you didn't ask...

My two dogs bring me so much happiness too. Sometimes when I am driving home from work, I picture their wagging tails and tongues sticking out and their bodies quivering with excitement when I walk in the door. That makes me want to get home all the more sooner!
