What's yours?
It's that time of year when the honeysuckle is in bloom. I love to drive with the windows down and every once in a while get a whiff of the sweet scent.

The smell during and right after a spring rain.
Wearing running shoes for the first time 
Good music
Cruising down the freeway in the hot, hot sun.

Clean sheets.
A great song on the radio while you're in your car and can drive fast.
A phone call, email or card from someone you haven't heard from in a while.

nude beaches...whoops wrong thread.
new running clothes, chocolate, jelly beans, and the smell of lilac. I forgot to add because it hasn't happened in a long time....running next to a train! That is a thrill. There's a train track right next to one of paths on one of my routes, and it always makes my heart beat a little faster when it's chugging by me.
also after juliet has her bath and is cuddled in my arms listening to a book.

sitting on the front porch with a cup of coffee and the morning newspaper as the sunlight warms my still-sleepy body.
taking every opportunity to let my kids know how proud I am of them: 4yo did some additional kindergarten screening today (he realized we were stressed about it; he'll be a "young 5" and the school district thinks he's not ready for "real" kindergarten) He asked me as we were walking down the school hallway after the testing: "you proud of me?" "I did my best." it made me want to cry. I made sure he knew how proud I am.

Awwww....keltic.... he sounds so sweet.....
an early morning walk on the beach with someone you love to watch the sun rise
a late evening walk on the beach with someone you love to watch the sun set
splashing through puddles getting soaked in the rain even though you're way too old to be out doing that 
giving a hug to someone you know really needs one that day
the first flower opening on a plant you raised from seed
Thanks, Sahara......GREAT thread!

my simple pleasure is , Joel 
Seeing Abby take steps. Having JJ run up to me when I come home. Watching Hannah's cute little butt wiggle as she runs away from me.
Having Robin in bed with me as I sleep.
