little things

I chanced upon www.justlittlethings.net which has a list of little things we should appreciate in life.  We often take things for granted.  It is a good reminder that we try to appreciate the little things for life is too short.  Here are some of mine ……

Having a cup of good coffee

Revisiting favourite childhood places

Knowing the lyrics to my favourite song

Singing it out loud when I hear it on the radio

The smell of grass after the rain

Watching a good soppy or funny movie

When I hear Ashley laugh out loud

Acting silly with my friends

Wrapping presents

The concern people show when they know I am upset or injured

Sleeping on my bed after I have changed the bedlinen

The sound of the ocean

Being around people I love

Laughing so hard that I can’t catch my breath

Going on long road trips

Logging in to Facebook on my birthday

Sitting on the beach watching a sunset

    My little things that make me feel good is when my kids all behave well – no whining, no crying, no temper tantrums and just listen to whatever I say and getting enough sleep 🙂

    spending some wonderful time with hubby and daughter, watching them playing peek a boo, my daughter’s laughter, play chasing game, enjoying morning breeze esp after the rain, even a wave of hand from my neighbourhood security guard also (not that I like him lol), thanks to you, at least now I must stop a while and appreciate what we got.
