On June 10th, for no reason at all, I was hoping we could post on our blogs, the things in life that make us happy. It can be pictures, a list, a post. No rules.
I love lists, no rules and belonging (thanks Extranjera), so here are my simple pleasures:
- The family all sitting around the table, deep in conversation
- Being totally rested
- The sound of the wind in the trees
- Strolling around in a bookstore
- Lying in the tipi listening to the fire crackle
- The smell of a new book
- The sound of the ocean
- Driving down an open road on a summer day with the radio blasting Baba O'Reilly, my all time favorite song ever.
- Loose jeans
- Fresh sheets
- Getting lost in an inspiring creative project
- Knowing my children are safe and happy
- The way my husband and I fit when we hug
- That first cup of coffee in the morning
- Listening to an audiobook while cooking
- Being understood
- Indoor plants against a large window
- Listening to my son tell a funny story and laughing until tears run down my eyes
- Rainy Sundays
- New art supplies
- Surprises in the mail
- The feeling I get Friday night when I know I have the whole weekend free
- Hearing my grandson chatter away in his own Bean language
