Smile! Smiling is a fantastic way to communicate with those around you as well
as strengthen facial muscles. Smiling is a mood lifter – stand in front of a mirror and smile at yourself.
When I do that, unless I’m very happy and just catch my reflection, I usually
laugh.
Smile at the baby in the grocery cart line.
Smile at the older person standing next to you at the bank.
Smile at your neighbors as you walk or drive along.
Smile at your co-workers.
Smile at — well, you get the idea.
The one thing you can do each and every day no matter where you
are is smile.
Warning: smiling can be contagious!

This seems so obvious, but it'samazing how many people seldom smile. I certainly did when I saw your photo of the cute smiling baby! Another thing that makes me smile is encounters with animals, especially pets - not just my own, but other people's pets on a walk, or in a store, or best of all, at the Dog Park - the Happiest Place on Earth!
One of my favorite things is to "flirt" with babies in the grocery store. When they smile or laugh, my day is a success. And, yes, I agree that most animals (not reptiles or squirrels) do bring about that same sense of calm, comfort and joy that babies do.
Lovely post, Judith! I love smiling at babies and little kids at restaurants and stores. It makes me feel really good when they smile back, and they always do. Smiling is a wonderful form of communication. Thanks for this post.
In some ways it is really amazing that such a simple act brings us so much joy! Keep smiling!!!
I know I am a tad bit late but she is BEAUTIFUL Grandmamma! (and she very much made me smile) Thank you for sharing this post. :)
Thanks for stopping by, Kelli. It isn't a problem to be a 'tab bit late'. Every comment is appreciated no matter when it arrives! Hard to believe she'll be 3 months old next Monday.
