My almost 7 year old daughter still wanting cuddles

Mine's 9 and still likes the snuggles. Getting all I can while I can.

My daughter's face--it really lights up when she laughs.

Sunrise, and not just the sun rising, but the peace and quiet as the sun rises.

Someone telling me they appreciate what I've done for them.

Taking a power nap.

My son's big blue eyes when he's smiling at me, when he tells me he loves me, and nearly everyday he tells me "mom, your so beautiful." He's only 5 and he's such a sweety!

Other than that...fresh cut grass, a good run on a dirt road, and a good song that makes you just wanna ....dance!

My children's smile.
My 16 month old son tells me Hi and waves every time he looks at me..and tells me bye when he walks away
My daughter learning to read
My daughter telling me that I'm the best mom she's ever known and that she'd never trade me..lol
The smell of dryer sheets
Sweat (I dont like sweat, but I feel such a sense of accomplishment especially if I was debating beforehand)

(Sorry for repeats!)

- Campfire: burning s'mores smell...pass the flask!
- Right when the seasons change - catching the scent of flowering trees, hearing the first ice cream truck after a long winter...first day hot and humid enough to go to the beach...
- Mail (like from the mailbox), particularly postcards.

Seeing that sparkle in my sweeties eyes when he is looking at me. :smooched:

That little I was thinking of you gift for no reason. :flowerforyou:

Lately continuously pulling my pants up makes me ecstatic :bigsmile: ... until it starts gets annying.

Just looking at the sky.. when things get crazy I look up. Overcast, sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowing, starry... it all opens up my mind. I think I'd be in some euphoric state if I could go somewhere where there was no light pollution and just see an endless amount of stars. But for now I frequent the NASA site and check out the pictures

You know sometimes when you smell an imaginary smell, almost as if your nose has remembered a fragrance of some kind that isn't really there, just a memory, and then you have to think of what that smell is, and then you remember it was a past smell from a time when you were really happy...like the memory of the smell of your grandmother's perfume, or the smell of a friend's house from high school, etc...That always makes me happy.......does anyone else ever get this, or is it just me?

The way my wife smiles at me when she catches me looking at her.

Clear blue skies
A cool breeze on a warm day
Sunsets
The sound of waves coming into the beach
Bright stars on a clear night
Leaves changing color in the fall
Big puffy clouds

Losing weight!
Fitting into smaller clothes
Running longer than I expected

The list goes on and on...

Watching my son put his sense of humor on display.
Watching my daughter idolize her big brother.
Having kids who want to snuggle with Daddy before they go to their own beds.
Getting my daughter up early so she can go through the waking up process in my arms.
Watching my son beam with pride when he comes up with a new "move" to show me on the trampoline.

Laying in bed on my husbands chest watching a movie or TV. It feels so great.

Playing with my kids, seeing their smiles and hearing them laugh
Fishing trips with the guys, just relaxing on the boat throwing back a few cold ones, telling stories of the good ole days

Flying a kite on the beach with my grandson.

I have flown a kite during a tornado. I was thinking "This is the end, might as well go out doing something fun."

Nothing makes me feel better than hiking a mountain. The peace and quiet along with the fresh air and views makes for a fantastic sense of accomplishment. Getting to the top, is the icing on the cake.

Someone else said one that I forgot, but I need to put it on here too:

Tulip season!!!

My mom had them planted in front of our house, and every spring we would cut some and put them all over the house. So pretty! After she passed away, I got a tattoo of a yellow tulip on my shoulder blade; my younger (badass) sister just got a black and white one on her RIBS (ouch!), and we miss our mom every day.

So yes, tulip season makes me really happy. There's a house on a corner lot that I pass on my way to/from the gym, and earlier this spring, the whole yard was filled with gorgeous tulips, and I would slow down to walk really slow past it every day.

My sons giggling
The cat on my lap
Driving with the sun roof open and the stereo up loud
The smell of freshly baked cornbread
