. . . laughing out loud for no reason at all.
. . . a cool pillow on a hot summer night.
. . . hearing a song that reminds you of someone you love.
. . . cocoa with extra marshmallows.
. . . your favorite pair of slippers.
. . . rain on your rooftop in the middle of the night.
. . . hot apple cider.
. . . being best friends with you brothers and sisters.
. . . making a flower crown out of daisies.
. . . warm tea first thing in the morning.
. . . four generations of family in one photo.
