I smile because I am in my own place, with all my children.
I smile because I have a wonderful job, making more money then I need.
I smile because my children are happy & healthy.
I smile because I have a great relationship with 3 children, that aren't biologically mine.
I smile because I am crossing things off my to-do list (finally)
I smile because I have the most awesome, loving, supportive family.
I smile because I have the most loyal, ride-or-die. goofy friends.
I smile because I have found peace.
I smile because I have found happiness.
I smile because I have earned the right too.
I have done the work.
I have been broken down to my very core,
but I am stronger then ever, and happy.
I make no apologies for smiling, I have cried enough.
I have earned the right to be happy, and smile.
