The 3^rd Day of Christmas (my true love gave to me: a trip to Bern)

Where do I begin?  First there are all those little things that make life a joy in the everyday.  I was in the secretary’s office and as I walked out with a smile on my face I realized that I had just walked in, taken care of business in German without much thought, asking questions and understanding the answers and even cracking a joke that was understood and caused a laugh.  Fluency used to be my goal, but now I realize that all I really need to be happy is to be able to easily express myself and understand and most importantly, make people laugh.  Some days are better than others, but good days are getting more frequent.
