Is shining

The moon is shining.
Is "is shining" a simple predicate? Or only "is"?
I'm very happy.
Is "am" a simple predicate?

As far as I can gather, the "simple predicate" is just the verb, so the simple predicates in your examples would be "is shining" and "am". I am happy to be corrected if this is not the case.
