I'm a huge Norman Rockwell fan, which is just one reason why I'm thrilled to be teaching about him next week in my home school co-op art history classes. In doing my research, I came across this quote in a 1936 article in "The American Magazine" -
"It was his mission to celebrate the ordinary - 'the things we have seen all our lives, and overlooked.'"
That's the secret of happiness right there - to celebrate and cherish the everyday, to pay attention to the small things. God has given us a beautiful world full of beautiful moments. Take the time to appreciate them.
