I'm getting to this thread a bit late but here are my little favs:

- getting home from the daily grind and having my kids greet me at the door with smiles & hugs
- playing a game of street hockey with my son
- sun, lots of sun, more sun + stars at night


I hear you.  Our second child, was born today, he is 7lbs 10oz, Elliott at 10:54 am.

Congrats on the new addition!

Hearing the waterfall for the first time this season.  Still pretty bleak looking out, but amazing what a little of the right sound can do for the mood...

Thank you.  There's still snow on much of the front yard though... :(

Thanks again all.

Just realized our the first initial of our names spell SHOE.  Scott, Holly, Olivia, and Elliott! 

We had Elliott picked out when my wife was pregnant with our first child, if it was a boy Elliott, if it was a girl Olivia.
