Fw: [MC74 and Friends] My entries for Simple Pleasure/Key to Happiness



Dear friends,

Here are my entries for the theme Simple Pleasure/Key to Happiness. I had difficulty selecting a picture to submit, simply because there are so many simple pleasures for me yet bring me so much happiness, from gazing at a beautiful sunset to spotting flowers in someone's yard, singing to a familiar song on the radio, sharing a dessert with a loved one, or dancing to a favorite tune. In the end however, I decided that the key to happiness for me are people and my relationships to them. So without further delay, here are two pictures of two people who are very near and dear to my heart: my grand daughters Kalyn and Sydni.

The first picture is called Flower Girls, which I took prior to their attendance at a wedding in which they were flower girls. The second one I call Joy, as they seemed so happy lying in a hammock!
