1. The latest thing to make me smile was an email from a friend of mine telling me about her newest addition to her shoe collection. It should be added that I live too far away from my friends but therefore truly appreciate them. Maybe what really makes me smile is technology making a long distance seem not so long. Yep, final answer is technology.

   Ps. Buzzed, tweeted and blogged about the competition :)

2. Watching the Olympics makes me smile! I love how the whole world gets together for some friendly competition. I’m so happy for the athletes whose dreams come true after years of training. I was beaming last night when Evan Lysacek took gold in men’s figure skating! I was jumping up and down in my apartment – my cat was looking at me like I was crazy! :)

3. Interactions with strangers — you share a moment, laugh or SMILE together and will probably never see them again but for one moment you shared a rare moment in life, together, as strangers.

4. talented people make me smile. would love to win this… and happy birthday in advance!

5. Oh what a happy giveaway!

   Mexican food makes me smile. I’m going out with my husband this evening for a happy hour of quesadillas and margaritas. It will be a really nice reward after a very long week! Thanks for the giveaway!

6. One thing that made me smile today was my son. He was counting down the days up to his birthday, and when realising it is only two days away (he turns 5 on Sunday 21st) he got so happy when thinking about balloons, birthday cake and presents.
   I also got a smile when I thought of when he was born, and that we arrived home from the hospital 4 days later on my own birthday (Feb 25th) – the best birthday present I have ever got :-)

7. Kissing my boyfriend and being kissed by him makes me smile.

11. Waking up to a bright sunny morning with that feeling where everything is possible and you’ve got nothing particular to do except indulge in a warm home-made scone and hot cup of coffee and get creative! :)

12. the way my baby girl (13 mo) looks just like her daddy, but oh so girly still.

13. I love that little daschund!

    Lazing on my sun-drenched sofa on a Saturday morning makes me smile (which is what I’m doing right now). Letterpress and handmade always make me smile big grins. Ooh, and unexpected gifts. And seeing beauty in the mundane.

14. This old Phyllis Dillar quote:
    “A smile is a curve that sets everything straight”. Enjoy your birthday!

23. beautiful print!
    spending time with M makes me smile more than anything!

24. Simple pleasures make me smile-planting on a warm spring afternoon,or my husband still holding my hand after 20yrs of marriage or something quite silly-like my big dog chasing his tail round and round!

25. My two cats! Watching them do silly things and enjoy all the little things of life, like sleeping in the sun, getting some food and just being a cat, makes all my worries go away for an instant and just makes me smile.

29. hearing my youngest yell “tickle me, mama!”

30. Hearing my little girl wake up every morning and saying “allo duck” makes me smile. So cute that she talks to her cuddly duck, actually she’s obsessed with ducks right now. Love the big yellow SMILE. I can picture it handing in my son’s bedroom, on a beautiful blue wall. It would look sunny and bright. Keeping everything crossed that it may come my way. Thanks.
