Making this list was easy and an exercise that made me realize how wonderful this world is and how I do try and soak in all the goodness it has to offer in my corner of the world.
I took the "things" word more literal and obviously I love my Savior, I love my handsome husband, my precious little daughter, my parents, sisters, in-laws...my faith...etc, but I went a different direction and tried to think about the details of life, big or small that make me happy.
