Aw, all those things make me happy too! Some more things that make me happy are: cleaning (afterwards, the good feeling); exercise (again, afterwards :); creating new things, like cards, blankets, etc.; doing photo shoots of Hunter; pumpkin pie; when Hunter finally nods off for the night and I know I have a few hours of freeeedom(woo hoo!); little bitty baby kittens and puppies; reading a book I can't put down; and lots of other things. Just making that list made me feel all happy inside! Thanks for writing your list. It was fun to read and think about!
I love all the pictures and I'm so happy you got to go fishing. love you-t.
I love sleeping in and going on mid-morning runs in the fall and having all the leaves fall around me.
And I love eating pancakes at like 11:30 at night with roommates after a long day of classes. :)
But I like your list. There's so much out there in life that really makes us realize how many tender mercies the Lord gives us each day.
Snuggling with my kids, sleeping in on Saturdays, watching a cheesy romantic comedy with John, warm bread pudding for breakfast, eating dinner at my Mom's house, listening to the Pride & Prejudice soundtrack in evening light, crunching through fallen leaves, a clean house, fifteen minutes of uninterrupted silence where I am not needed by anyone and I can empty my mind of all of the "I should be doings."
