Joy

"The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize the, but that they seize us." - Ashley Montagu

For this class assignment I was asked to post a picture of an emotion and I just had to chose this one. Pictured above you can see my cousin Yasmin, far left, sharing a moment of laughter with her daughter, Yadira. It is such a genuine photo. These ladies, along with Yasmin's two younger daughters, have not had it easy; however, I applaud that after everything they have been through they are always full of happiness. Times may be tough but they always find a way to make things work. They are great about sharing a good time with relatives, driving an hour to visit and opening their house to my big, fat, crazy family.
