These are a few of my favorite things….

1. The look on my kids’ face when they see me after a long day at daycare.

2. The way my husband is always 10 degrees warmer than I am, which makes him my very own electric blanket.

3. The fact that on most days, I get home before everyone else, with just enough time for me to make dinner without little children clutching my legs.

4. The way Netflix always sends me the best new releases the day they come out. (You gotta work the Queue, though. You gotta work the Queue.)

5. The way my purse still gets me compliments even though it’s approaching two years on my arm.

6. The way my son does his happy dance whenever you give him some food.

7. Buying a ton of groceries, bringing them home, and filling up the refrigerator. Makes me feel so accomplished.

These are mine. What are some of YOUR favorite things?

  1. 1. Brownies and the way their chocolatey goodness captures my tastebuds with every bite!
    2. My husband’s dimples and hazel eyes
    3. Michigan autumns. The trees are so pretty (until it’s time to rake the leaves up).
    4. Mya’s old and funny spirit. She’s always making me laugh. She’s like my dh in that way. She’s 1 year old but you’d think she was 12.
