Things that make me smile...

- the first graders responding at Mass, in loud voices, unafraid and unembarrassed - my students every day- a dad biking with his kids- the Budwieser radio commercials where they salute random people (if you've heard them, you know exactly what I mean)- my 4 year old niece when she leaves messages on my cell because she always says, "I miss you, love you, call me back," as if she is an adult- "Grandma Got Ran Over by a Reindeer" b/c for some reason, my mom loves that song- M & M minis
