What makes you smile...

[eidsvold]

I figured that this could be the opposite of the what annoys you in others thread....

I love the daffodils being out - spring.

Sunny days

When dd smiles at me or giggles for no reason

When people tell me how lovely dd is

[GeorginaA]

When the estate agent phones up to say the chain is now complete and you won't be losing out on the house you love after all...

[Chinchilla]

Eidsvols - all yours are mine too! Ooh, and seeing that Magnum has seven new flavours - yum...

[Chinchilla]

sorry - 'Eidsvold' - typo!

[Hilary]

Seeing my two boys (4 and 2) sitting side by side looking at a book, or playing together, or talking together...

[Claireandrich]

When DD (11 months) toddles over to me, puts her arms round my neck, pats me on the back and then gives me a big sloppy kiss!!!

TBH, just seeing or thinking of DD! (Soppy mood tonight I think)

[Chinchilla]

Oh yes, when you see other people in town with babies, and you both smile at each other because you know that your children are so special. It is lovely to be able to acknowledge people that you don't even know without them thinking you're weird!

[Sabbath]

When they are tucked up in bed, they look like angels. And when my ds says he loves me!!

[breeze]

Looking at the clock in the morning and DS has slept in.

When DS tells me that he loves me and it is now immediately followed by can I have .........

When my DH doesn't mind me coming home earlier from a day out so I can watch my team on the telly.

When I log on to mumsnet and having a bad day and read some replies to the threads embarrassing stories etc etc.

Seeing another poster doing typo's and realising it isn't just me that has trouble typing.

[Enid]

when dd2 (5 months) shakes her rattle and looks pleased at the sound it makes

when dd1 (3) pats the sofa and says 'come here mummy I've made a warm place for you'

when dp pours me a large glass of wine in the evening

[jessi]

When I feel my baby kick, despite keeping me awake at night, its heaven.

Ds and his never ending questions and when he clings onto the bannisters pretending to be spiderman with a very serious look on his face.

Dh who is evolving into the greatest dh I could ever of wished for.

[cathncait]

I love looking at dd when she is asleep with her face wedged against the cot bars or face down, bum in the air. Awwwwww.
And the look on dh's face when she (71/2 months) says 'dadee'. (even if she doesn't know thats him yet!)

[bouncy]

Joining a new website and making new friends.

How do I do those smiley faces?

[batey]

Dd1 saying, that although she really really loves me, dd2 is her very very best'ist friend. I think that's great knowing they'll always have each other...

[Ghosty]

DS crawling into bed with us in the morning, snuggling against me and not going near DH because 'Daddy is smelly'!!!

[Chiccadum]

Sex and chocolate

[mckenzie]

I heard a lovely little saying last night

To the world, you are somebody
but to somebody, you are the world.

[bossykate]

bron, for me it is ...

oooh! sparkles!...

i'm older than you anyway!

[Frieda]

Watching ds and dh rolling down one of the many hills in Greenwich park, laughing out loud on a sunny day.
Driving along and singing the themetune from Jay Jay the Jet Plane with ds at the tops of our voices (who cares if we don't know all the words ? we just make 'em up).
The "glug glug" sound of pouring that first glass of wine...

[Tortington]

the " sorry if i caused offence " thread made me wet miself.

bron, made me smile just now

my daughter sends me e - mails to tell me she loves me - that makes me smile

sex makes me smile - afterwards

[SimonHoward]

Seeing my daughters face light up when she first sees me when I walk into a room.

The Taxman saying sorry and giving money back.

Sex (before, during and after).

[zebra]

When DH tells DS "I love you". When we tickle DS and stop he says "Do it again!"

When DD sits happily, contentedly, curled up on DHs lap for seems like hours. How much delight DD takes in shoes.

Any mother breastfeeding. Men comforting tiny babies.

Any mother struggling down the road with cranky toddler(s) and a 3yo on bike racing away at high speed.
