This image makes me smile everytime I see it.  

It reminds me to laugh, and breathe, and gives me a tiny break from my worries.  I keep it in my Smile File.  I have a folder of photos on my computer that I will never, ever, ever remove because they provide a pick-me-up when needed. 

 When I taught first grade a million years ago,  I had a “Smile File” in my lower desk drawer.    I kept drawings and happy notes from my students  (right next to my emergency Dove chocolate).  Those kiddos probably never knew how much I would treasure their offerings, but I did.  I still do.    

Today, I wish you random smiles to get through the day!
