Mine would be - My 2 months old niece held my finger with her whole hand, tightly. Felt really happy :)

What about yours? Don't be shy. Share!

My 3 year old son was totally jamming to Nine Inch Nails today in the car asking "turn it up Daddy!" on the way to daycare. That made my day.

friend brought over super puzzle fighter turbo yesterday and the kids LOVED it


So cool to see your kids play the games you liked.



Today I was happy to have a nice cup of coffee in silence this morning when the kids and wife slept in.

Sometimes its the little things.

Silence is so rare these days.

Amen to that! Love my kids. But jeebus they are noisy, dirty little things.

Got an extension to finally work right in my forum. It has a minor problem that I have to let the Dev know so he can fix the code. Other than that not a whole lot makes me happy these days. Maybe if I win the lotto. My glass is pretty much half full. :colbert:

My 5 year old always complains that all i do is "work-sleep-work-sleep". I tell him that I need money to buy his angry birds pig attack game. He replied yesterday why i haven't bought it yet, i said i still don't have enough money. He ran to his room and gave me the tin of coins he was saving. He said here, now you can stop going to work /sniffle

Having my 21 yo son stop taking prescription pain killers, start taking showers and brushing his damn teeth, get a job, get a girlfriend who isn't a skank, and become far healthier over the past month than I have seen him in years.

For all the dads above with young ones.... just when you think its over.....

Been working too hard over the past month so my bosses told me to take today off. That made me happy.

My 14 year old daughter is an incoming freshman and on the HS softball team and I was told she would likely be starting for varsity.

Just woke up. Hopefully a smooth install of Windows 10. Just did a fresh install of 7 and am using the Microsoft download tool.

I flashed back this morning to a few months ago when my 6 year old son asked from the back seat if I would put on "hippopotamus soldier by Bob Marley". Made me giggle as I drove to work.

Great news man. Good for him!

As for me, realizing the fact that it's Friday and I get the next two days off and I can sleep in tomorrow.

My cat woke me up for work. If my alarm goes off, and I don't show signs of rising, she tries to get me up.

I upgraded to 10 today. Not liking it. :/

As for the OP, my work hours changed, and I really like the new hours. :)

Today, nothing yet. Earlier this week, I was driving late to work (I had worked a few overnight hours, so was going to the office at like 11), and I saw a 2cv!! seeing a 2CV in the wild made my day for sure!
