Things I Love

homemade presents from the kids
GELATO!!!
catching the kids cuddling together on the couch
dancing with the kids
MY FAMILY!!
getting the giggles. unless it's at an inappropriate moment. like a funeral.
wrestling (and not losing horribly) with DJ
seeing Kyle in his new leadership TKD uniform
hearing Karis describe how she'd take out a bad guy
finding that "Etsy Transaction" email- one more sold item!
finding money in my jeans pocket!
winning. at anything.
getting a hug from Kyle AT school when I pick him up
the smell of new babies
spotting the kids reading together- without being forced to
receiving fresh flowers from the kids
SNL
new sheets + freshly shaved legs.
a clean house.
finishing a big project.
the Harry Potter movies.
christmas music. any time, any where.
snuggling in a sleeping bag with DJ while camping in the cold
knowing that my kids probably would be able to survive if I was home alone with them for the weekend and I died and they had to fend for themselves.
dates with DJ
Harry Potter.
the winter olympics.
the summer olympics.
ice cold limeade.
having the hair stylist wash my hair. aahh.
cuddling and snuggling with the kids
getting artwork from Kyle
getting kisses from my girls
getting mail (good mail)
hearing kaylie babbling to herself
hearing that Karis loves me "to Jesus and heaven and back again"
my husband
packaging up babyhoot orders.
reading books
the feel of breaking boards- successfully
The smell of REAL Christmas trees.
the sound of the kids' voices on the phone
winning games against the guys.

Things that I don't like

rude political people ruining a fun family parade
watching those awful TV shows of gnarly accidents and near-death experiences.
people who take forever to make up their mind or answer a question.
spiders. and having my kids laugh at me when I tell them to kill the spider
when it's too bright to see without squinting, but too cloudy for sunglasses
folding and putting away laundry.
people that don't hold their ground when it comes to parenting
watching people eat fried chicken. (really, it's OK if that last tiny morsel goes to waste)
