the first snow of the year (haven't seen it yet, but want to be here for it)
waking up glad to be alive.
dancing when nobody is looking.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.

My children's laughter and smiles
Watching them while they sleep
My daughter's poetry and my other daughter's crafts
snow-topped pine trees

walking through the woulds the the sound of autumn leaves crunching beneath my feet...
Someone singing from the pit of their soul...
Laughter...
There is a few amongst many!
hymns
church buildings filled with people
I love to watch the sun pouring out of the ocean when rising.
I love gentleness, softness
I love a cool breeze on a fall day swaying the colorful leaves.
I love the waves of the ocean washing up on the shore.
I love the warmth of the sun.
I love to feel balanced
I love to see my boys smile and laugh.
I love the way my family loves me.
I love alot of things, but I will keep it short.
And, I love all of you that care and want to be supportive.
The stars in the heavens on a clear night
My sons smiles and thumbs up as he rides to school on his bus
People
Children
Nature
The untouched parts of our planet
Bowel movements in general.Including reading material.
B Flat major is a classic ballad key.
An impromptu fuck.
Hearing children laugh or laugh AT you.
The momentary overwhelming RUSH of being alive and thankful.
The smell of greasy fried food.
The sound of caught breaths in kissing
