11/2/2010: I LOVE

1. Batman.
2. The beautiful peace and quiet that seems to be hugging Bombay right now.
3. That I can stay silent even when I am with my closest friends and my butterflies understand completely.
4. That I can close my eyes and switch off.
5. Watching butterflies flutter, listening to chirping birds and wtaching doggies try and catch their own tail. :)
6. A dolphin's call.
7. The sound of a waterfall as it makes its way down the mountain.
8. Giving the people I love the mostest spiritual hugs.
9. Making up words like "darlingest" and "mostest" to enforce how much I really care about someone.
10. Seeing a darling baby take his/her first steps...one of God's most precious miracles.
11. That Praj always, always ends our g-talk chats with a smiley. :)
12. That Liz, Praj, Such and me are like peas in a pod, but still different.
13. Saving some of the darlingest messages in my cellphone.
14. That I can close my eyes and send the people I love the mostest spiritual huggies and kissies. They are the darlingest people with beautiful souls.

6/2/2010: I LOVE

1. My best friend's wake-up call this morning saying "Hi madame, what are you up to?" I mumbled (still in my sleep) "Hi sweetie, sleeping."
2. Sunita (she has worked for our family FOREVER) asking every morning, "Kaise ho baby?" Oh and her beautiful smile of course.
3. Sitting in my PJ's with messy hair, a hot cup of tea and a whole day of just being.
4. Listening to the different birds cooing outside my window. Thanks to the trees on our lane we still see cuckoos and the odd sparrow. BLISS
5. The precious notes that Gerry left Holly in P.S I Love You. :)
6. The sunrays across the hall room floor.
7. The aroma of a baking cake.
8. A baby's butt...the cutest, softest lil hinny's EVER.
9. Lil Shiloh-Hope - my friends's niece. You WILL want to eat her and cuddle her at the same time. :)
10. Kamya (Divya's baby girl). I promise you that she has the squishiest butt EVER. SQUISH on my arm when I carried her...and no she hadn't pooped then. :)
11. Mikaylah-Hope, my niece and her general fascination with water. :)
12. Shopping for baby girls - they have the BEST clothes and accessories EVER.
13. Going back to my memories of my gran and me, sitting on our porch in the old bungalow and taking the silence in. This was our Saturday afternoon - porch time, story time and at exactly 3:30 pm every Sat one of the other bungalows would bake a cake religiously.
14. My dreams because they take me back to my nana's arms...the safest and most loving arms I have ever known.
