What little things make you happy?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for January 05, 2008:
When a toddler calls me "mommy!" out on the street.
When I blink to the passing cars, warning them the police patrol is on their way, and the people driving wave at me.
When a bunch of schoolchildren say "Hello" to me passing by, all at once.
Taking a walk right after the rain has stopped.
When we have tomato sauce for lunch.
When I relax and manage to stay in "bear" yoga posture longer than before.
When my nieces stand on the first step and yell upstairs at me "auntie djurrrdjicaaaaa!"
A new lipstick.
When my honey lifts me up for no reason and twirls me.
When the sun shines through my window drapes in the morning.
When I see a comet, and manage not to scream "woooohoooo!"
The first melon that summer.
Freshly picked tomatoes.
When I lay by the fire, listening to someone slowly playing guitar.
When I look at fireworks.
When I get out of the car after a long ride to the sea coast.
When I feel the salty sea water for the first time that year.
When I listen to the waves in the afternoon.
When I inhale the smell of home after I've been away for a while.
When we make strawberry jam, and I'm squeezing them with my hands to get the juices going.
The smell of paint of all kinds.
The way my younger niece calls ma boyfriend "Bubi", instead of "Bugi"
When I see a happy old man walking slowly in the middle of the busy streets.
A first coffee in the morning.
When I stumble and fall and it makes everyone laugh.
Gummy bears!
When I manage to sing the whole end of White Rabbit in 1 breath.
When someone diggs my blog post.
Fruit salad.
When I run into a bunch of birds on a square.
My boots - clean.
Listening to my honey's heart.
The way street lights make light circles in the trees at winter night.
Making footprints in the snow.
Landing a snowflake on your tongue.
Lying under a Christmas Tree!
Pretending, imaging the most amazing things while playing with a child.
Pretending I'm Carrie Bradshaw while out for the first time in my new anything.
Stumbling as I get a wee bit superficial.
Reading a poem and understanding it.
Making friends with my friends' friends.
Slide my head under the water in a bathtub and listening to sounds in the house and in my body.
Swimming on my back, watching the clouds and birds and airplanes.
Riding my bike after my man and passing him by, showing my tongue.
Saying hello to people with my funny bike horn.
Going out on a Saturday night, all dressed up, and flirting with my honey.
Going out on an unplanned night, all dressed down, and having a blast.
Waking up in a tent, knowing we still have 3 more days by the lake.
Eating a strawberry ice-cream on a hot day.
Walking barefoot over a soft morning grass.
Getting out of the sea, sitting down on a hot rock to dry.
Sharing a laugh with a random woman in the ladies room.
Getting a drink for someone you know across the bar, him lifting the glass up to you. Bonus happiness if that person needed an evidence they exist that very night.
Giving a piece of advice to a youngster and they get it.
Walking through the woods in the Autumn.
Walking through the woods in the Winter.
Walking through the woods in the Spring.
Riding a quad through woods in the Summer.
Sunday soup full of vegetables.
Tomato soup.
An in control flying dream.
Smelling a perfume I had eons ago.
Funny photos of my friends and me.
A misunderstanding that end up in all parts laughing.
When my pop corns turn out perfect.
The beginning of a movie.
The end of a book.
