Reading. A warm cat on my lap on a cold night. Good quality chocolate. The smell of rain. My husband. :)

Moonrises over the Mediterranean... snuggling under the duvet on the pull-out couch on a Friday night with my husband and daughter watching a feel-good movie... home-made (not microwave) pop-corn with butter... visits from my parents... children's laughter... guitar... opening a soap mould, especially when a new soap... teddy bears... lavender...earl grey tea... hot baths with a good book... sunrises over the Mediterranean... xo

I love this list. My list would include the mole on my oldest son's finger that I kept mistaking for a splotch of dirt when he was a baby and the tiny freckles that are slowly appearing on the bridge of my youngest's nose.
