The name of my blog is
Little Things Bring Smiles.
I chose this title because it is important to remember the little things in life and to rejoice in them. My reason for blogging is to share my life, all parts of it {including the good, the bad, and the ugly} along with my home, crafts, and DIY projects I complete. Each month I want to focus on the little things that brought smiles to my days.
I would love for you to share your little things and see if they bring a smile to me, or another reader :)
Here are my little things from November:
- Being the second car in the carpool line
- Enjoying the holiday drinks at Starbucks
- Seeing our new dining and living room take shape
