Because I'm happy!
Spring began to appear this week. Short sleeves were worn. Some extra time spent outside.
I smiled from ear to ear one afternoon on the drive home: sunglasses on, heat off, coat unzipped.
As I watched my kiddos spend some time on the playground I couldn't help but smile. They were happy, I was happy. Nothing like some time on the swings and game of tag with 9 year olds to remind you to just throw caution to the wind and just be happy!
Can't nothing bring me down...happy!

Who has not saddled up to a swing, kicked back with all your force to see how high you can fly and forfeit all your worries to the wide open sky. Talk about a room without a roof. Oh yea, I remember.
awwww this must be recess, the very best time of day!! i remember being on those swings, feeling free, trying to "touch" the sky!!
a great image is one that evokes a feeling, and this really did for me. the fun and happiness of youth!!

Good day Tamar, yes children are supposed to be happy. The work of a child is to play and grow. Swinging is the greatest.
Oh my gosh...this brings back such happy memories of all the time, and all the games we would use our swing set for. Makes me smile for sure :). Thanks for joining in at Song-ography.
Recess makes me happy too! and I love me some swings :)
Time to recharge the soul (no matter how that happens) certainly makes me happy. (love the song btw)
Kids and playgrounds equal happy, for sure! Enjoy the warmer temps and sun!
When Hubby and I went out this week we noticed the kids outside playing on the local school playground. It was the first day in quite a long time we had seen them out so when I saw this I had to smile.
Wonderful interpretation of that line of the song.
Totally captures the feeling of the song!!
Recess in spring is pure bliss! Hope you get many more outdoor days!
Children and fun and laughter and spring in the air...bliss!
yay spring!
Temps have dropped again, but looks like they might go up again in a couple of days, so yeah, happy about that. :)
i agree ... springtime sure makes everyone happy!! enjoy!
It's been wonderful to feel the warmth of the sun again and open the windows!! Fresh air makes me happy too!
I love swings, they do make you feel happy. So glad you are seeing signs of spring and the kiddo's were able to enjoy some time outside.
Spring and happy kids certainly do make for a happy teacher!
