- clean kids--this is surprising considering how seldom I bathe the little boogers but I just love when they are all three clean at the same time. Often I'll catch a whiff of somebody or notice the greasy hair and send the offender to the shower and that's how our bath schedule goes. But, at least once a week everybody gets bathed all in the same night. That was tonight.
- tapioca pudding
- the first cool, crisp breeze of fall
- the first time in the fall that I walk into the grocery store and smell those cinnamon brooms
- going out for the day with my family--Ollie plans some great day trips
- laughing really hard, like "I'm going to wet my pants laughing"
- chocolate anything
- reading to my kids
- seeing Hannah really into a book--I want her to be an avid reader soooo bad. She does read but mostly only when I tell her to. She's too busy creating and playing. Right now she's in her bed reading, it's 10 and she needs to go to bed but I don't want to stop her because she's doing it all on her own.
- a really productive school and home day
- a really good meal that the whole family loves, especially when there are leftovers
- leftovers--especially my mom's; she has a whole drawer of leftovers that I clean out for her when I come to visit.
- biking
- time with my kids without the pressures of school and house
- playing Skip-Bo and Phase 10
- working a big, fun jigsaw puzzle
- discovering a new author
- America's Funniest Home Videos
- anything hot to drink when it's cold--chai, hot chocolate, coffee, ...
- watching travel videos
- singing in church
- Thai food

I love laughing with my family too. I love the lightbulb I see above my kid's heads when something clicks. Special looks between Rod and me. When my near grown kids give me a hug, this could go on and on!
Great list!
laughing really hard
taking a nap in the afternoon in the hamock
going to the beach in december
iced chai
the leaves changing in NY (boo-hoo)
i like your list and chewhi, i like yours too, especially that one about you and your hubby
You guys are probably not going to understand what I'm trying to say here but I just had to comment. I read chewhi's list as though it weren't a list of separate things. This is what I mean--something clicks when her kids get it and then she and Rod share a special look and then when her kids give her a hug (I'm thinking this is all part of an inside joke) then the laughter goes on and on. It wasn't until I read Ann Marie's comment that I realized it was a list. I think it's too early in the morning...
Tiffany, YOU are funny! I am laughing at you right now.
I was too lazy to hit the return/enter key ;)
I like everyone's postings on this but the song is now stuck in my head!
