Every morning I look out into the garden and see my happy friend. I know if he’s laughing and smiling it’s going to be a good day. He’s got it all figured out.
What is your morning routine to help start your day on the right track?
Adventures From Carpool To Empty Nest
Christina Simon says
The BEST picture! Love.
Carpool Goddess says
Thanks, Christina!
Anne @notasupermom says
Buddha is a cool dude!
Carpool Goddess says
I think so too 🙂
Missy says
Great picture! My morning routine – I look at the clock when the kids wake up and if it’s past 6am, it’s going to be a good day!
Carpool Goddess says
I know the feeling!
Chloe Jeffreys says
I have wanted a laughing Buddha for quite awhile now. I think he shows great perspective. I haven’t gotten one because I’ve been afraid of what my Christian friends might say. Isn’t that silly?
Carpool Goddess says
I don’t see it as a religious symbol, thought for some it may be. I just thought he had a terrific outlook on life and would make a lovely addition to our garden.

Seems like you are a very smart lady…how can you help but smile back.
Carpool Goddess says
It’s contagious, right?!
HeliMom says
Where can I get some of those flowers? Magnificent. Love Buddha too, makes me happy.
Carpool Goddess says
They’re succulents. I wish I could remember the exact name, but the ol’ brain isn’t ringing any bells.
Ann Dunnewold says
Love the laughing Buddha! Want one! The smile is contagious. And Chloe, get one! I’m a preacher’s kid and I give you permission by proxy, as if you needed it.
I start my day with a powerful Chakra toning meditation, so see how far I’ve stretched those preacher kid roots.
Carpool Goddess says
Ann, whatever makes you happy and less stressed is the name of the game 🙂
Stephanie says
Good way to start the day.
One Funny Motha says
I don’t have a routine to start my day off right. Maybe that’s why my days never go right. One question, tho. Do you ever wake up and the Buddha isn’t smiling? That would be scary. And it’s funny that you have wordless Wednesday & I have Word to Your Motha Wednesday. I guess Wednesday is good for words and no words. People can have their pick.
Carpool Goddess says
Lucky for me, my little Buddha is always in a good mood. I can’t help but crack a smile, even when I don’t want to, when I look at him. Yeah, Wednesdays tend to be days when people are probably too busy or tired to write. Love them! I’ll check yours out too 🙂
Grown and Flown says
Ohhh I need him out my window, but then he would be buried in snow for part of the year, probably not the same. Thanks for sharing him with the rest of us.
misssrobin says
What a beautiful photo and what a wonderful statue! Thanks for sharing. I’m going to give this some thought. Something to remind me each day to smile would be a great addition to my life. Hm.
Have a lovely weekend.
