I became a fan!
my boys telling me they {love} me
I shared on FB!
I’m a fan! And I’m becoming a follower on Twitter :)
Taking my sweet dog some place to run always brightens my day. Seeing the joy she gets from running madly in a field brings ME joy.
I shared — and something that makes my day is when some does something unexpectedly nice.
Something that makes my day brighter…my 11 yr. old son. While he is full of “fart jokes” the child keeps me laughing (and on my toes.) Glad to follow you on FB & Twitter. Have a great contest!
Chilly Fall mornings when the sun is coming up! LOVE IT!
Became a fan & twitter follower!
Something that makes my day brighter–chasing my little dog around the house! He has a moo cow toy he loves, and he loves to be chased. I can come home from work, tired and a little down, and all he has to do is get his moo cow, run up to me with his wiggly little nub of a tail, and I’m instantly happy and ready to chase!
My days is brighter when I look at my beautiful newborn daughter’s face or see my amazing husband holding her!
I am a fan too, What makes my day brighter is seeing my labrador garth and hugging him and also My hubby and all my pets and hugging them. Then get sooo excited when I get home to see them. WOOF.
Seeing photos of friends and family right before I walk out the door always gives me a smile. And a rare morning drive without any traffic!
I am now following you on twitter and just became a fan on facebook. Thanks for the great giveaway! What brightens my day is getting to watch beautiful sunsets on my front porch.
Plus, My quaker Parrot Mr. Pickles would love to look at all the birdie stuff and he would love the clock, would make us both smile!
Taking a walk at the nature center in Troy always brightens my day and takes my mind off of anything that’s bothering me.
Seeing my family all together!!
My children’s hugs make my days brighter!! Nothing like a hug from your teenage kids…
thanks for a chance to win some great stuff!

Thinking about all the wonderful family and friends that I have. And, I love candy so anytime I buy some it always brightens my day!
Good morning kisses and tail wags from my sleepy lab mix!
I became a fan on Facebook!
And I just started following you on Twitter too :) (@dinkypopsnomore)
What makes my day brighter? Getting a big hug and kiss and “I love you Mommy” from my little toddler.
waking up to my lil maltese giorgio hogging my pillow :)
What make my day brighter? When by 3 and 6 year old boys wake up in the morning with sleepy eyes, blankies and stuffed animal in hand, and say “good morning, Mommy”.
There is nothing like that!
A brighter day – remembering that always, always, always – there IS hope.
Sleeping in on the weekends and just reading the paper and eating breakfast…AAHHH the sweet life!
No matter how bad a state of mind you may get into, if you keep strong and hold out, eventually the floating clouds must vanish and the withering wind must cease.
It always makes my day brighter to come home to my dog’s wiggling body. No matter how tough the day has been, she always makes it better!
A couple of years ago this sweet little, and really skinny, cat started hanging around outside of my house. Once it started getting cold and I could find no signs about a missing cat, I brought him in. I already had two and wasn’t really wanting to take in a third but boy am I glad I did. He is the most amazing guy ever, I named him Langston Hughes because a cat this smart deserves a very smart name.
Opening my eyes to find my two dogs, one cat, one daughter and one husband all in bed with me. It’s a tight fit, but feels like love!!!
What makes my day brighter? Hearing my son’s laughter. And seeing a certain celebrities Bubble Tweets!! lol
buddy, my sweet ‘sharpsky’ (sharpei husky)! (he just brought me his rubber bug to throw).
im a fan, and it always mekes my day a litle brighter when i get home from school and all my little siblings run up to me and give me a hug!!
I shared on Facebook and became a Fan! What makes my day brighter….my 3 1/2 year old daughters who make me laugh all day long!
My cup of Tim Horton’s half coffee, half hot chocolate — not a mocha! AND making sure everyone gets out of the house on time (relatively!) and with everything they need!
Shopping at Catching Fireflies with my daughter!
getting a fresh flower bouquet :)
A brighter day for me……finding time to get everything accomplished on my “to do” list–makes for a brighter tomorrow too.

When I come home from work and my 11 year old son always asks how my day was! and somtimes I even get a hug!
Just thinking about my next shopping trip to Catching Fireflies!
Taking my camera to somewhere beautiful and photographing it!
what makes my day a little brighter is pulling into my sisters driveway & seeing my 1 year old niece & 3 year old nephew standing in the door waiting for me with huge smilies on their faces. there is nothing better than a smile on a babies face!
Looking at my belly always makes my day brighter. I’m 4 months pregnant and when I’m having a bad day or feeling stressed I just take a look down to remind me that there are so many bigger things in life and it’s all going to be so worth it in the end.
Love your store, one of my fav local spots!
Thanks!
You new twitter follower and facebook fan :)

What brightens my day? My thirteen-year-old daughter who still hasn’t turned into that awful teenager (and probably never will). She is bright, thoughtful, kind, and sweet. I love her!
