1.   Going to the library with kids (only to be surprised with an Abraham Lincoln exhibit)
2.   Overcast, cold days with the a fire cracking in the fireplace.
3.   Walks at night with kids and dogs
4.   Doing final rounds through house at night.  All quiet except for Libby's Bach.
5.   Four pounds of mussels, pasta and red wine.



6.   The sound of kids playing rather than the sound of television.
7.   Nothing to do but rest.
8.   Kids milling about in kitchen while cooking.
9.   Reading at night.
10. Thoughts right before falling asleep.

How simple.
