Reason to smile

I don't need much of a reason to smile as everywhere around me I see plenty of reasons to smile. My lovely husband sitting beside me. New flowers coming up in the garden. Dinners with my children. My cat Gus chatting to the new neighbours cat Ginge. Yes they really are chatting. My interpretation of their conversation goes something like this.
" Hi I'm Gus, you must be new here? You are gonna love it here as my parents are crazy about cats"
 "Yeah, hi my name is Ginge short for Ginger and I can see I have a soft touch in that lady that keeps coming out and trying to pat me".
"Yeah that's my mum Zena you think she is a soft touch, well wait till you meet my dad"
"Oh great I think I'm gonna love this neighbourhood, see ya Gus"
Anyway that's what I think they are saying.
