These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

Today, Mom, Karen and I went and had spa treatment at The Nail Studio.  Up until a few months ago this was a biweekly event for us.  Life has sort of gotten in the way lately and we haven't been since November.  They welcomed us today and seemed very excited we were there.  We always seem to become "the life of the party" when we are there.  We had a blast and actually got DELUXE pedicures and HOT OIL manicures.  Having done this today, I started thinking about how mani/pedis are definitely two of my favorite things.  This inspired me to write this poem.  I hope you enjoy!

These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

Bubble baths by candlelight, bathing in the sunlight, butterfly kisses that say goodnight., these are my favorite things.

Dinner and a movie with my favorite girls, chocolate, vanilla and strawberry swirls, feeling like I'm on top of the world, these are my favorite things.

Singing in the shower, a bouquet of beautiful flowers, pillow talk for hours, these are my favorite things.

Laughing til I cry, the taste of sweet apple pie (a la mode),fireworks on the Fourth of July, these are my favorite things.

The sound of little feet, hugs and kisses, ( what a treat!), dancing to a familiar beat , these are my favorite things.

Gentle massages, weekends away, vacations to the beach, a Happy Birthday!

Manicures and pedicures, carpet picnics while watching TV, being serenaded by two special boys, spending time with my family.

What more could I want, what more could I need?  All of these things are what make me, ME!
