You ever had an “Awww!” moment? When you see something that’s just so sweet – and there’s a stir in your heart, and a few tears may threaten your eyes? I do – quite often actually. :) My dad says I need to get over it – lq. Never!

“Awww” moments remind me that I’m just human, that I have all range of feelings, that there are some things in life that make me so happy. They remind me that there’s more to life then the rat race – there’s love in all forms.

Here’s five things that stir my heart:

1. My puppy-dog’s expression when I’m eating and she wants some (I’ll try to remember to post a pic of her later. And No Shin! She is not a lamb!).

2. My Brother when he actually doing something anti-annoying – something cute. Said action usually happens right before he asks for something he know’s he shouldn’t have. Example:

Bro – “Mom…I love you”, he hugs mom and kisses her forehead.
Mom – “I love you too.”
- Two Minutes of Silence as he watches TV with Mom -
Bro – Doesn’t look away from the TV. “Can I have some candy?”

3. My Snuckum Pie when he does something extra sweet. He made a mini-movie for me the other day. Sometimes we record parts of our date, and he shocked me quiet when he put together a few clips, some slow music in the background and some really sweet words. I loved it, and I love him.

4. My mom when she looks like a little kid – with a bow in her hair and dark curls flowing down her back, and this innocent look on her face.

5. People with mental and physical disabilities. I can’t explain this correctly – all I know is when I get around such people I just want to gather them up in my arms and protect them from the world. I want to give them all my love.

What about you?
