It's the small things....

OK, I just got this train of thought by reading Dancewithme's post. She wrote:


"I had similar things happen many times with him where he takes care of things without me even knowing. Simple things like when we hurry out sometime I forget to put something back in the fridge and then on my way I would be like "Gosh I forgot to put the milk back in fridge " and he says No I put it back.. "


That IS very sweet and it reminds me to be appreciative. In this day and age where it is so hard to find Mr or Ms right, it's easy to forget or not notice the good things. Well this is true for me anyway. I need to appreciate more... and scrutinize less. Heck, if I was scrutinized for my imperfections I would be single for life...lol. So here's some of the small things things I appreciate about not only my guy but people in general. I thought we could start thread here about what we appreciate about our friends, family, our lives, or our guys...the little things. It makes my day brighter just acknowledging that good things happen every day...


For me:


1) Blue Eyes kissed my bruised knee the other day. Such a small gesture but I loved it. Also sometimes he just picks up my hand and kisses it. It feels so caring.


2) The day HE was so sick with a cold...I went to his place to make him soup. He insisted on heating

I've got to admit - I started to tear up

I definitely need to chime in because I've been focusing on the bad things a bit too much lately.
