happy things - day 2

A morning well spent with my family. Silly dance time with my son. Good coffee. Finishing the first Lockwood & Co. book. Starting The Paris Apartment. Making and devouring a bunch of roasted okra. Baby snuggles. Getting my house organized and back to normal after the holidays. Easy but delicious dinners. Baking a red velvet cake. Reading Henry a bedtime story. Getting some time to myself after putting the baby to bed. Getting all the dishes done and put away. A long, relaxing bath.
