Oh HAPPY Day Link Party!

Welcome back to the Oh HAPPY Day Link Party!

Time to celebrate what is giving us JOY and making us HAPPY this week.  It is so easy to get bogged down and lost in the negative.  Let's take a moment and celebrate the positive. 

This week I am happy for the joy that my little bear faces life with. He has been taking swim lessons for a month now.  Every time we walk into the pool he tells any one who will listen that one day he is going to jump off those diving boards.

Hitting the water!
At class this week the older kids in the more advanced class got to try the diving boards.  My little bear saw what they were doing and politely asked his teachers if he could go with them.  The teachers both laughed but figured WHY NOT!  

There he was impatiently waiting in line with all the big kids to march to the end of the diving board.  With no fear or worries, he proudly jumped.  I could see the smile on his face when he came up from his jump.  If they would have let him, he would have gotten back in line to go again and again and again!  

So today I am happy for his joy and sense of adventure!  May it always serve as a good reminder for both of us.

On a completely different line of thought... I am co-sponsoring a pretty cool giveaway at Eat.Enjoy.Live... hop over and enter!

I'd also like to once again thank all the lovely bloggers who joined up with us here for Oh HAPPY Day last week.  Congrats go out again to Laurie @ Saved by Grace for having the most views last week.

Now onto the party!

The rules are pretty simple: 

Have fun and say HI to as many other party goers as possible.  =)
