Keltie's post got me thinking...

Here are some things that make me happy

1 - Seeing my 80-something Auntie Eleanor blow raspberries on Lily's bare tummy.

2 - Hearing my daughter laugh spontaneously at the dog.

3 - Long detailed emails from my brother. (or my 'little bother' as my dad sometimes calls him...)

4 - The look of love on Lily's face when she gazes at her Daddy.

5 - The sound of Leocat's purr. It's deep and rumbly and soothing.

6 - A quiet house, a comfortable chair and a good book.

7 - Friends with babies, ones that understand how hard it is to be a mom.

8 - My parents, for setting a great example of how to be a good parent.

9 - Overhearing my grandmother whisper to Lily how much my grandpa would have loved meeting her.

10 - The sound of Bryan's keys in the door at the end of the day - I miss him when he's at work.
