The good list

Kids laughing, splashing at the pool, sparklers, starry nights, the smell of my gardenias, watching a lazy copper-coloured dragonfly grace our pond, hummingbirds at our feeder, warm snuggles with Lil Bit, listening to Chris read to Maggie, tiki torches on our lanai, the smell my tomatoes plant give off when I pull the vines back to see if there are ripe fruit, watching Mags sleep and gently touching my cheek to her warm chubby cheek, home pedicures with my lil gal, playing Super Mario Bros on my DS and Chris teasing me for getting all jumpy and moving around like it's going to help Mario jump over that crevasse, peanut butter and homemade olallieberry jam sandwiches, BLT's with lettuce and tomatoes from our garden, Maggie's toesies, laughing with friends, rubbing feet with Chris, warm summer nights, a good book, drive-in movies, running, knitting something fantastic.

May your days be filled with wonderful things that make you smile :o)

Happy Independence Day!
