A great song coming on the radio. My daughter says I love you unprompted or runs into my arms to give me a hug. A patient says thank you or tells me I've made a difference. Warm weather. When DH rubs my back before I go to sleep.
My bed... I love my mattress and getting comfortable with DH with the fireplace on. A drive in a convertible on a spring or fall day/night with great music.
A hot bath, a good Lush bath bomb, a book and Opera. I haven't gotten a chance to do this for myself in a while, I'm crossing fingers I'll be able to do it after the gym tomorrow.
Currently, it's dill pickles. But really, hugs from DD and when she says, "luh youuuu!" When DH takes time out of his day to do something small for me or get me something small. My dogs. A nice long hot shower. Chocolate.
Late June when it's still light out passed 9pm, getting into bed with freshly clean sheets, warm towels right out of the dryer, sunny beach days, snuggles from my DH, summer nights outside, boat rides
Sundays, fall weather, DH, DDs smile and hugs, how happy my dog is to see me when I get home, a clean house, days off with DH, my parents. I could go on
When I wake up next to DH(which is rare) a nice day when I can open windows and enjoy the weather, when my children behave and don't fight, when my favorite song comes on the radio, when DH does something nice for me, and my best friend. I miss her.
Spending every day with my daughter. Hearing her say 'I missed you so much!' When she wakes up and the beach with my husband. My pregnant self is loving a good nap right now too .
When DD laughs so hard she snorts a little. Red wine (I miss you boo). Netflix binges. When my dogs snuggle up in bed (but not when they take over the bed). A hot shower. A good massage. Almost every comfort food.
My kitties coming and snuggling with me in the middle of the night. Random hugs from the kiddos I teach. Getting a chance to cuddle with my husband in the evenings. When I wash, dry and fold all the laundry by Sunday night (a VERY rare occasion). Sitting by a bonfire with friends.
Bath time with DH, candles and a lush bath bomb. We just did this mmmmm everyone's skin smells amazing! Also sitting by the fireplace with the dogs warming our butts when it's really cold out. Human or not, everyone loves a warm bum in winter :]
Snowy Minnesota evenings where I'm curled up in a fuzzy blanket drinking hot chocolate and watching a movie with DH. Baths listening to classic music with candles (glass of wine before) now a piece of dark chocolate and a book. And most importantly my bed, I love crawling into bed with nice cool sheets my fan on my face and my cozy comforter and husband cuddles.
Curling up in bed with a good mystery novel. Ice Cold Sweet Tea. My nephews laugh. Husband cuddles. Falling into bed. Red lipstick. Long drives with husband to nowhere in particular. Dill Pickles.
Our 5yr old decided it was the perfect one to cut down and bring home and H and I agreed even though it was pretty lopsided just because he was so excited about it.
Also my 5 and 3yr old helped us decorate it so there are so many empty spots and then multiple (like 4-5!!) ornaments on certain branches. I love it lol!!!
Wife. Boy mom x6. Expecting #7. Wannabe homesteader. , 💙💙💙💙💙💙
Bonfires - one of my favorite smells and love to play music with friends around them. Kisses and hugs from DS and watching him learn and figure out new things. Listening to DH read books to DS over the baby monitor. Back-rubs. When DH plays with my hair.
My bed. When my dog gets under the covers and wants to snuggle with me. Spending rainy days getting cozy with my husband and watching a movie. A bubble bath and a good book. A glass of Italian red wine. A good cry. Putting on a record. Reading out loud.
My girls' smiles and laughter. Maine. The scents of balsam, vanilla, and the ocean. A cozy blanket or pair of slippers. Watching my husband play with my kids. Old stone fireplaces, country kitchens. Snickers ice cream bars, lol.
Just watching my DD smile and hearing her laugh, hugs from my DH, foot rubs from DH, curling up on the couch and taking a nice nap, oh and of course my German Shepherd (aka my first baby) love him
DD's smiles, laugh, and kisses. When I get to cuddle with DH in the morning before starting our day. Hot baths. Music that has meaning. Sandy beaches. The smell of gardenia. My new sheets that I bought after asking what sheets a B&B had... So soft and comfortable. Doing something nice for someone anonymously.
Re: GTKY: What are small things that make you happy?
Oh...and my cats. My cats make me oh so happy.
Married: May 16th 2015
These days, time to myself.
I love fresh clean sheets, my daughters cuddles, no dirty laundry or dishes and cake!!
Watching H with our boys. I really lucked out in the husband department. He's amazing.
Seeing how much our boys adore our dogs and vice versa.
Baths.
Kid milestones. More specific first words and walking!

Getting into bed happy at night.
When DS gives me kisses without me asking.
Christmas trees (sadly I don't think we are putting one up this year due to getting a puppy + having house work done because a tree fell on our house)
Date nights.
Going into the nearest big city.
