COMMUNITY The Little Things That Make You Smile Thread

Right now, what consistently puts a smile on my face is my two youngest experiencing new shit since being here in MI. My daughter is a bird nut, all we had in Vegas was pigeons, crows/ravens, and the extremely rare hummingbird sighting. She sees new birds every time we leave the house and she's so fascinated by it.

The kids saw brown and black squirrels for the first time and the way they stopped everything to watch them was great. We saw a herd of deer chillin' and some wild turkeys in the mix. Had to stop and watch them for a minute.

Tonight we were on the side porch looking at the fireworks in the distance and I noticed there were fireflies all over the neighborhood. All up and down the block there's floating, flashing lights, so I directed their attention to them and they watched the fireflies about as much as the fireworks.

They've never seen so much water as they have out here. Never seen so many trees like this. Even the way it rains is fascinating to them, especially my son.

Every time they experience something new I smile.
