some things to be happy about

• Mischievousness
• Scrubs
• Radishes
• A sand-between-the-toes walk on the beach
• Banana nut bread with chocolate topping
• Going to the library
• Buttering toast generously and immediately so the butter melts and sinks in
• The short stroll you take before deciding on new shoes
• Simple, satisfying tasks like sharpening pencils or straightening your desk
• French toast, butter, and powdered sugar
• The 'snuggle right in' feeling
• Someone calling just to check on you
• Wet babies
• That loose strand of spaghetti on your fork that beats you on the chin
• Asking advice from a kid
• Gumball machines
• The smell of the air-conditioner in your car after it has rained
