The way my daughter puts her arms around my neck in the morning, half-asleep, and wants to be carried.

Watching my daughter sleep so peacefully.
Man they grow up too fast.

CGT, you're so right... the years pass by far too quickly and then our babies have moved on. Watching a child sleep is one of God's gifts to us, I think. At the very least, it helps us to not clobber them while they're awake and being brats, haha.


Some simple pleasures...

The smell of a newly mowed lawn, mmmm

The sound of birds singing (but NOT mockingbirds in the middle of the night :bang: )

The laughter of a baby

Holding his hand

Climbing into bed at the end of the day, when the house is quiet and everyone else is safely in their beds.
