1. Even without a nap today Simon was mostly pleasant and obedient.  He did get in trouble a few times for hitting his cousins with golf clubs and baseball bats.
2. Watching Piper interact with her little three-year old cousin.  She was helping her color and acting like such a grown up girl.  What a nice big sister she is, and will be!
3. Homemade turkey noodle soup (with homemade noodles!) and Virgil's root beer floats.  My sister and brother-in-law were the chefs, not me.
4. Sleeping in despite the kids waking up at 6:00am
5. My niece Emma's wonderful talent of composing music and also her lovely singing voice.  It always brings tears to my eyes.  Rick can never get enough of her either.
