Some Things I love...

I was sitting in my car today driving home from work...in silence (ahhhhhh) and I was thinking about some things that I just love and that bring me all the happiness in this life and I thought I would share them (in no particular order).

• Silence
  
• A good book
• Giving Jackson the beaters from cookie dough for the first time and hearing him say, "mmmmm"
• Watching my husband play with my son
• Watching my son look at his dad watching basketball and say what ever daddy says, "Oh, nice" (that one is my favorite)
• At the end of the day when I am so tired, seeing my son go get daddy's scriptures and bring them to us to read
• An Arizona day right as the sun is setting and the sky is full of pink and blue and yellow, wow! it is just beautiful
  
• Seeing how much my son loves his mommy and daddy. He won't ever say a prayer or start playing a game until BOTH daddy and mommy are there
• Flannel sheets in the winter
• Origins face lotion (I swear they put crack in it, you can't stop it once you start)
• Watching Jackson sing Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam and jumping high on the beam part and feeling the spirit so strong every time I choke back tears
• How I feel after a really great workout
• Going on a date with my husband especially when he wears cologne (that hardly ever happens)
• Feeling a baby grow and kick inside me
• When I lay Jackson down at night and he puts up one chubby finger and says, "wait mommy, wait one minute." (I fold every time)
• On Sunday when Josh is passing the sacrament and Jackson always says, "daddy, daddy, daddy" and follows him with his finger around the room. ( I should tell him to be quiet but I just love that he likes to watch his daddy)
• The thought that Jackson knew the baby that is on the way in heaven and that they will get to see each other again soon
• CHOCOLATE
• BROWNIES!!!!
• A really hot shower, so hot that when I get out all my skin is red and all the mirrors are fogged up
• Having such an amazing husband that honors his priesthood, works relentlessly for his family, ALWAYS makes me laugh and loves being a dad
• Having a blue eyed, blond haired baby that looks just like his daddy
• Going on weekly walks with my family
• Feeling so much love I feel like my heart will literally explode if I love anymore

I could go on a lot longer but the two people who read my blog might be getting sleepy so I will stop here.
