A smile in my heart

There are certain things that put a smile in my heart.
A snarly greeting from my dog.
A hug from my hubby.
Sitting on the deck, enveloped by nature.
Knowing my friends are my friends.
And my kids!

My kids are adults now.
(As much as any of us are!)
And still, I use phrases and words from when they were little.
It puts a smile in my heart.
The color "greem".
Gazebo (with the accent on the gaz instead of the e).
"Yeeve me ayone!"
Wizard Villaj
"I want to be a princess . . . or a painter."
