There's Nothing Better Than...

There's nothing better than the smell of a freshly cleaned baby or child
or a warm bed that you don't want to get out of in the morning and can't wait to get in at night,
the smell of a warm load of clean laundry with your favorite fabric softener,
tasting a hot chocolate chip cookie,
watching a good chic flick all by yourself so you don't feel embarrased when you cry your eyes out.
There's nothing better than your kids smile or laugh,
the way your husband or significant other kisses you,
how it feels when you come home after a vacation or a long day,
the smell of your babies breath,
or the feeling of accomplishment after a good workout,
helping someone else by giving service.
There's nothing better than a hot shower, even on a summer day,
getting your hair done,
a good meal that you don't have to cook,
a date night with your hubby,
or a girls night out that makes you laugh until almost peeing your pants.
There's nothing better than holding your newborn all day, even when they are sleeping, just because,
or bedtime for your kids when you're just ready for some quiet time,
a clean car inside and out,
a new outfit that fits like a glove and makes you feel like you can do anything,
payday.
There's nothing better than Spring and Fall weather in Arizona,
taking morning walk in brisk, cool weather,
watching your little ones learn things you didn't know they could do,
reading a good book,
knowing you have great friends and family you can lean on anytime for anything,
having a strong testimony about the gospel of Jesus Christ and everything that comes with it,
going to the dentist to find out you or your child doesn't have any cavities,
or feeling like a kid again when you walk through the gates at Disneyland.
There's nothing better than knowing I could write this post all day just to be reminded of all the blessings and good things there are in life. We have to take the time to slow down and recognize what we have and what we are grateful for. Happy November!
