Heavy rain

The scent of old frail book pages

Long aimless walks with my dog

Non-stop sunshine

Milkshakes at midnight after winning home football games with the marching band family

The stillness of the air in an empty dim-lighted auditorium

Blowing bubbles through a straw in milk

Beach adventures

Peaceful camping trips in the woods that disconnect me from the rest of the chaotic world

Gold sunrises & sunsets

Secretly hearing a stranger hum a song I'm unfamiliar with

"Messy hair don't care" days

Baking peach braids just because

Getting lost intentionally in New York City

Finding a hold-in-the-wall place to eat

Antique book shops

Googling a name & being amazed with the accuracy of the meaning behind it

Picking oranges, lemons, & grapefruit with my dad from his yard and making freshly squeezed juice

Practicing flute for my grandpa

Trying something new

Skating, even though I'm awful at it but still trying

Taking a candid photograph of a significant moment, soon memory

Kite flying on the beach with my little brother

Making a boquet out of wildflowers

Scary summer storms

Drives with no destination in particular

Up North Michigan

The way my mom would make oatmeal in the middle of the night for us to enjoy when we were little

Proudly planning my education

Writing poetry in the margins of a book

Vitamin Sea

Drying grapes into raisins on the windowsill

Eating & cherishing favorite childhood meals

Looking through old family photos & home videos on a VCR

Rummaging through my grandpa's "junk drawer"

The best egg salad sandwiches made by Nana

Papa's oversized flannel jacket

The cold wet nose of a dog

Soft warm blankets straight from the dryer

The scent of wood furniture

Thanksgiving spent at a cabin in the mountains

A first kiss

Raising caterpillars into butterflies & releasing them

Remembering how to play a song on the piano

A warm summer breeze

The smell in the crisp air after it rains during autumn

An unexpected thoughtful gift that says 'I know you'

Feeling well rested

A hotel room for one

Dancing in the kitchen late at night to music with my sister

Disciphering my Godmother's cursive calligraphy letters in the mail

My sisters hotel soaps collection

California Poppies

Drinking milk from a bag as a kid

Love finding me at an unexpected yet perfect time

You <3
