Favorite Things

I've always loved the movie "The Sound of Music" and the song "A Few of my Favorite Things" has been in my head for like a week (tis the season). So, I thought just for fun I would list a few of OUR favorite things.
My list:
1. Lily
2. all the other members of my wonderful family
3. music, listening to it and singing to it
4. eating yummy food
5. being outside in the summertime
6. my beautiful friends -- those who live near and those who live miles and miles away.
7. VACATIONS
8. Writing this blog, and reading others.

OK. Now for Lily's list. These are just my best guesses judging by her behavior. She will neither confirm nor deny the validity of her list.
1. momma (I am not trying to toot my own horn. I'm just one lucky momma)
2. Her green blankie, flower blankie, dog, bear, bunny... we can't leave home without them
3. princess jammies and jogging suits. ("all done jeans")
4. dancing, ballerina moves.
5. books
6. her blocks -- building towers
7. Candy canes, candy corns, cookies, suckers... OK, anything sugary sweet
8. All members of our family and our close friends. (loves being with those who are familiar. Not
always thrilled to be in the company of strangers.)
9. Watching TV -- especially Dora, Diego, and Blue's Clues.
10. Making people laugh. She is really good at this.

We had a rough couple of days, but "I simply remember my favorite things, and then I don't feel so bad!"
