I posted on the forums a while ago that I had a list of 100 little things that make my day, and yesterday that I would post at least part of it here, so here it is (and in alphabetical order!). I've narrowed it down to my top 50, because it takes an awful lot of time to read a list of 100 things, let alone type them.
-accents/funny voices ("e--mblemATic...")
-apples
-baby smiles
-bedsheets fresh from the dryer
-bees
-books (old books, new books, red books, blue books)
-cell biology (hooray for microtubules, or microtubizzles as Katie Siragusa and I call them)
-cloudy days
-confirming a critical hit (on a monster where it counts!)
-crickets singing
-dark, cool caves
-fire (best when somewhat controlled)
-fireflies
-fog
-foreign languages being spoken
-forests (the more undisturbed the better)
-getting letters in the mail
-going barefoot (especially outside, and even more especially in mud)
-"hidey holes"
-hot soup (best on chilly, cloudy days)
-ladybugs
-laughter
-lava lamps
-lonely places outside
-making music/listening to people make music
-meaningful prayer time (and I'm not just saying this because people from church read this, quality prayer really does brighten my day)
-mixing paint colors
-mossy rocks
-my happy mug (I'll post a picture of it later. It really does make me smile whenever I see it)
-peanut butter and jelly sammiches (that's right, sammich not sandwich)
-plant biology
-pranks (I feel less guilty for laughing if it's harmless too)
-puddles
-puzzles (jigsaw, sudoku, logic)
-raindrops (on roses)
-roasted marshmallows (I can make the best in the world)
-smell and taste of tea (chai, pekoe, herbal, green, whatever)
-sight, smell, and sound of autumn leaves
-storms (the wilder the better)
-strange earrings
-sunny days
-sunrises and sunsets
-the night-time sky
-toads/frogs
-trees (my favorites include smoke trees, blue spruces, Norway maples, and all kinds of birches)
-untouched snow
-unusual names (my massive random name list gets posted soon)
-water in nature (creeks, rivers, lakes, oceans, etc.)
-windy days

Great list, Maria! :)
One day, when you least expect it, you will hear a noise from behind, and I will make you smile, and there is nothing you can do to stop it.
That was fun in michigan. We stopped at a sand bar and me and mom got off the jet ski and I had to get on first cause I was driving and I thought mom was gonna tip it over cause we tipped it so easily at your aunt's house.
Christina: I think you got this post flopped with the one on your blog, so I was confused for a moment. Apparently it's pretty unusual for jet-skis to completely turn upside down when they're not moving, so I have no idea what I did getting on my aunt's that tipped it over, but it probably won't happen again. It was funny though.
