Small Bits of Happy

Thanks Darilyn for the idea. Please do this yourself and pass it on.
  • steaming hot bath
  • hearing a cello play
  • standing at the top of a mountain ready to ski down
  • corn on the cob from the garden for breakfast
  • cotton candy
  • water skiing at dusk, trailing my hand across the moon's reflection
  • the feel of tanned skin after a day in the sun
  • my mother singing
  • adeptly using a bike or roller blades to get around
  • the smell of a roast cooking
  • playing guitar and singing with children
  • an enormous sun dipping into the ocean
  • old family photo albums
  • driving a ski boat in the lake
  • the smell of apple pie baking
  • a fountain diet Pepsi, crunching the ice at the end
  • my husband's giggle when he is truly humored
  • my boys adoring their baby sister
  • daddy's and their baby girls (even when they are grown)
  • Red Rocks Amphitheater at sunrise
  • Triangle Lake, nearly all my childhood memories
  • giggling with friends in the sun
  • anything my children do
  • equal competition
  • listening to a good book
  • my husband wearing cologne
  • my father's blue eyed smile
  • gliding through the water with flippers on
  • watching my brother's softball games in the summer
