What Brings A Smile To Your Face?


What brings a smile to your face? I immediately think of babies, puppies, family and ...God's love.

Today I decided to leave the Fitness Friday posting in the capable hands of Sandy of God Speaks Today and Sarah of All Pain ~ No Gain. BTW, they are each responding to a letter submitted by "Unfit Girl". She admits she knows she needs to start exercising but doesn't know where to begin. I love how Sandy and Sarah each answered her letter in their own unique way.

So, back to smiles. Here are a few favorite photos that make me smile.

This is my friend Jamie's daughter Mary at her first appointment with the dentist.

My niece Katie being goofy with her friends.

Karli experimenting with a new hairdo.

Jill's Noah and Naomi praying. How precious is that?

And here I am with Shanelle. She's my dad and Shari's puppy.

I hope you leave Heart Choices with a smile today.

Life can be challenging but ...we can choose how we respond.

  2. Good Morning Debbie...
    These pictures made me smile as well. I love the picture of the little children with hands folded, eyes closed and praying as well. So absolutely precious. That will be forever etched in my heart.

    I have to tell you snowflakes make me smile. They are definitely angel kisses, and I love that thought. It always makes me smile.

    Thank you for sharing on this beautiful Friday. I love it.

    Stop by and say hi. I love the company. Country hugs...Sherry

  3. I vote with Country Wings. Those praying babies are as precious as they come!

    Humor is a huge component in my life. Sometimes it takes awhile for me to find/see the giggle-value of a situation, but I know my healing is on the way when at last I can.

    Smiles? The best ones for me are associated with the grandkids, or animals, or the beauty of God's creation, or the stirring of a great melody (whether the Beach Boys or the Gaithers).

    Come to think of it, my visit here has left me with one too.

    Blessings,
    Kathleen

  9. Thanks for the smiles today. I was observing some little ones at church recently and it does bring such joy to see their innocence and mischievousness. Brings back so many memories of mine when they were little.

  18. Well, I think smiling is still a Fitness Friday topic - even though it takes less muscle work to do it than frowning ;)

    ;D
