Taking Time To Appreciate the Little Things In Life

Too often we fail to appreciate the little things in life that really make our day. I thought I would share some of mine with you.

• The smell of freshly baking bread.

• The sound of the wind, as is whistles through the pine trees.

• The sight of snow swirling as it dances on its way to the ground, landing as soft as a whisper.

• The touch of my kitten nuzzling next to me when she's cold at night.

• The taste of summer's first strawberries.

• The way you hit all the green lights when you are driving home.

• Putting your hand in the pocket of a winter coat and finding money inside.

• Getting a warm towel out of the dryer on a cold morning.

• Attending a small town country fair.

• Having people tell you what an amazing dinner you just made, and it's now their favorite.

• Hearing Christmas carols in church sung by the congregation.

• Having your hubby bring you flowers for no special reason.

• Seeing a glorious sunset filled with all God's colors of the rainbow.

• Finding a four leaf clover when you aren't really looking for one.

• Laughing so hard you cry!

• Feeling the unconditional love of a puppy as it licks your face.

• Finding a sand dollar.

• Seeing your first shooting star.

• Walking and splashing in the puddles after it rains.

This are just a few and I thought I would share them with you as I compile a list. I'd love to hear yours. Please include them in the comments.
