SO with you one the smell of Youngest's hair and foot stuff! I also REALLY loved when they were little and got that totally milk drunk look after nursing. That shit eating baby grin was the best!! Happy New Year to the bunch of you and another year of blog reading.

I love 4x6 blank index cards, too. So versatile.

I might steal this one, too.

I discovered my love of goat cheese in 2007 and will order just about anything on a menu that has it.

Is pumicing a verb?

A little poem . . .

At first I thought it was wine at 5yrs old, but now, I get it...
Do explain the number 1 pencils, I always use number 2s, maybe it's the school girl in me...
Pink light bulbs, where?

A lovely list, I think I will steal it...

I really enjoy pumicing your feet too. With goat cheese. And lettuce.

Me too, totally stealing it. I will give you credit.

Love daylight moving through rooms.

And old people dancing at weddings. If I can see them through my tear filled eyes.

I'm soppy like that.

The most surprising- pink light bulbs.

And salad made by other people! Genius! I don't think I would have come to the point of self-enlightenment of knowing this is something I love, without this list.

(I especially love it when the person is neurotic and they chop everything up super small.)

why is it that other people's salad tastes so much better? and sandwiches too.

Fantastic list!
I'm with Mary about old people dancing at weddings. Makes me misty just thinking about it.
My grandparents used to hold hands when they walked down the street. So lovely. I hope I'm still holding my husband's hand after 60 years of marriage...

Get the heck out of my brain.

We're the same for Numbers 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 12, 13 (only at 4), 15 (drives S. nuts), 16, 17 (isn't it a luxury?), 18 (which is why my bedroom has windows on three sides), 20 (I tear up every time).

My little sister did the same list. I'll try my hand at it as well, and do my darndest not to repeat items on yours. It'll be good for me to look for more things that delight me.
