It really is the little things that make me smile. Last week, I went to my usual spot to buy groceries. The carts at this store are locked together and in order to get one you have to unlock it from it's partner with a $1 coin (or a similarly-sized token you can purchase in the store and reuse). On this particular day I found a couple of carts not locked together so I didn't have to mess with my token and wrestle carts apart to get groceries. It was a teeny thing that made my day better. It got even better when passed the cart on to a person walking past me as I loaded my car. I waved off her offer of a loonie (don't click on the link if you are Canadian) and she grinned. I wonder how many smiles were spread with that free cart?
Other little things make me smile. Eavesdropping on kids playing nicely together in the next room. Having the laundry folded without asking. Sliding into a bed made with sheets that have been hung on the clothesline. Teaching silly songs to my Sparks.
While I was cooking dinner (and steaming up the windows) Charlotte took some time to spread some smiles. |
