Happiness Meme

I have been tagged by my beautiful daughter-in-law in a Happiness Meme! Now if you are a baby boomer reading this - you may be thinking 'What the?" There are two words that I need to translate into 20th Century language so that I can actually respond to her request -'tag' and 'meme.' The first is easy - when you tag someone in a game - they then have to tag someone else. So the baton is passed to moi and I can then pass the baton on to another! Great - now 'meme' - any clues? According to Wikipedia its a set of ideas, cultural values etc that can be transmitted from one person to another in this case - 'Ten Things that Bring me Happiness'. So here they are:

1. Grandchildren

2. Watching my kids parent their kids

3. Having a house full of family and/or friends

4. Being challenged physically and mentally

5. Spending time with friends

6. Helping friends and family grow in their understanding of God

7. Adventurous holidays with my husband.

8. Swimming in the sea

9. Coffee on the back veranda - with a good book

10. Having the choice to decide what to do with my day!

So now I tag Shona to share the ten things that bring her happiness!
