Today I've been mentally compiling a list of "little favorite things". You know, those things that you find yourself enjoying, even loving, but that aren't big deals like a new car or a job promotion. So, I thought I'd put them in writing for your amusement and enjoyment. My little favorite things list:
Soaking wet swimming pool hugs from a kid with blue lips
That familiar smell of my husband's neckCapri pants, flip-flops, and freshly painted toenailsThe sound of my son's voice in a whisperThe sweaty smell of a baby after a good, long napBelly buttonsA long, hard run - one where your muscles ache but it feels good
Ringtones that let you know a loved one is callingGentle rain falling in the nightMy husband bringing me home dark chocolate from the store, even though he went there to get medicine for himselfA cool breeze on my shoulders on a hot summer dayListening to a Sunday sermon by a loud preacher, but hearing God's voice louder still
As the song say…
