- Coffee. Even better - coffee sitting out on a deck while it's still cool on a summer morning.
- The beach. Even better - at night with someone special.
- Your baby saying 'mama', or 'dada' if it applies. Even 'uh oh' is pretty cute.
- Finding an awesome new blog to read. Bonus points if it's one that makes you laugh. (MODG, anyone?)
- Babies who wiggle and dance to music.
- Fresh bread. And perfectly crispy bacon, not necessarily together.
- When baby takes both naps without a fight during the day and goes to bed easily at night.
- Completing a craft you've been working on forever.
- Taking a really great picture, and getting it printed, framed and hung on the wall.
- An unexpected friendly email.
- Watching a movie with the perfect 'pick me up' happy ending, like Legally Blonde.
- Completing and perfecting the decor in any room of the house.
- A good game of cards with friends.
- Putting together new furniture (I love it, I'm weird like that).
- Waking up feeling well rested while the baby is still sleeping.
- A shower after being outdoors all day.
- Finishing a really good book.
- The perfect new haircut.
- Buying a ton of nice, used clothes for the price of one brand new outfit.
- Discovering a catchy new song.
- Random ice cream trips with best friends.
- Falling asleep in someone's arms.
- A really great power nap.
- A long, non-rushed shower.
Only 24 things because that's my age. What are some of your amazing things?

I love your list! I think sometime I may have to borrow this idea and post one of my own. Wonderful concept!
I love it when coffee is ready for me in the AM. It's such a great thing to wake up to.

6 and 24 are definitely my favorite. My ring is my main amazing thing right now. :)
What a great list. You have included a lot of the same things I would probably mention, too.
What a lovely list! I would probably include several of the same things if I were to make one.

Sorry if this is a double comment. I tried to post a few minutes ago and think I might have navigated away from the page somehow.
I love coffee. Am having some right now while I read this! :) Stopping by from SITS Sharefest.
What a great list! I had a birthday this week, so maybe I should do a list too! Thanks for the inspiration! (Stopping by from SITS)
Beautiful list!! Don't know how I'd do attempting to list 55 things (my age) but since I love everything on yours, I have a head start, lol!

Coffee would be my number 1, too! And numbers 2-17. Love this!

I can tell you're a mom because so many things revolve around showers and sleep. Haha. Happy SITS day to you! Enjoy it!
That's a lovely list. My husband makes great bacon, but mine is always soggy or burnt. :)
Amazing list! I totally agree with the first in the list- coffee and I never go wrong together any time of the day :) Thank you for sharing.
Love your list! I have a feeling we'd get along well:) Perhaps with exception to putting together new furniture...Enjoying new furniture that someone else puts together, now that I can get on board with :P Happy SITS!
NIce list, but I would substitute tea for coffee and definitely the caffeinated kind. I like your list. Enjoy being 24 and your SITS Day.
Great idea for a post! I may have to "borrow" the concept. :)
I think I'm going to have to steal this idea, too. Wish I was 24, though. Or not - I'm happier now :)
Love all these things! All are a blessing. I, too, may have to write a list :)
Those are 24 WONDERFUL THINGS!! Oh you are such a youngin'!!! Enjoy these precious years my friend!! Happy SITS day!
Great post! And all very true. More like a long, non rushed AND not interrupted shower. It's been a LONG time since I've had one of those....
Happy SITS Day!
What a great list! I love everything on it. This is such a great idea, I might just have to borrow it and make my own list of 38 things. :)
Happy SITS Day! :)
I'd add chocolate chip cookies right out of the oven!! Stopping by from SITS!
Great list! Love them all-- especially the feeling after just finishing a great book. "Book Hangover" is my favorite. :)
Happy SITs day!
Love this list! I would add Sunday morning cuddles with my little man...
Love it! Thank you for the great take away for my day.
Love the list! Stopping by from SITS!
Love the list!!! Visiting from SITS!
Venassa, I may have to steal this...here's the deal, I'm 50! That's a loooonnnng list! Happy SITS Day! LOL!
This is such a great list! Oh, coffee. And babies that wiggle, adorable!
Happy SITS day!
xoxo
I strongly agree with everything you've itemized. Since there's always so much focus on the big picture, it can be easy to forget how important the little-picture things are.
Great post! I love it when I have more than 5 minutes to take a shower! Happy SITS Day!
What a great list, and a fantastic idea!! I think we share all the best ones ;) but I think I will add: my two children playing nicely together.
