Day 2. Five favorite things

Five favorite things, in no particular order...

1. A soft, comfy bed. The kind you sink into... and one with fresh sheets. Aaron has always said that if we were rich his splurge would be a brand new pair of socks every day. I've always said that mine would be a freshly made bed with freshly laundered sheets every day.  Ok so even if I was rich I wouldn't waste time or money on that... but I can dream, right?

 

2. Old movies. Movies today are good, but I will never tire of Frank Sinatra, Danny Kaye, Fred Astaire... and William Powell alongside Myrna Loy? Forget about it. No competition.

 

3. This cuddly giant:

 

I love all 3 of my boys to no end, but this little chunker is the cuddliest guy ever. When he naps on my bed instead of his crib he just wants to nuzzle you. It's enough to make my heart melt every time... and to wake up with these eyes just inches from yours? Nothing beats that!

4. Outdoing other's expectations. I can't think of another way to put it. What I'm referring to is that feeling I get when I've been asked to do a task and I do more than what was necessary or expected. I see this most often with my cookies... someone asks for something they expect to be a simple design, but what they get is something much more elaborate. 

 

 

 

I can't help it, I like a challenge. And I thoroughly enjoy seeing my hard work appreciated.

5. Massages. Because let's face it, they are awesome.
