Writing about all the big & little things

Sunshine makes me happy

I remember the first morning that I walked into this house–it was the day after we signed all the papers.  We signed the papers on a weeknight and I couldn’t go back over to see the house as officially ours until I finished teaching that night (after 9:00).   I did drive over there and take a small load of stuff that evening, but it was dark by then and really wasn’t until the next morning when I really go the full effect.

I remember when I opened the garage door and walked into the kitchen:  it was FULL of sunlight.  The sunshiney beams were streaming right in and I stopped and smiled.  Then I said to myself, “THIS is my kind of house!”

In our old Holmes street house the windows were small and the walls thick so even though there was light there wasn’t a lot of light.  I love sunshine and brightness and cheerful colors.  It makes my heart happy.

You know what else makes my heart happy?  This little girl.  She is also my ray of sunshine.  (Like my segway there?)

    Gal after my heart – I thrive on sunshine, too! And there is a lot of it here – even on days that it rains, the sun usually manages to come out for a while, too.
