things that bring a smile on my face

the sight of bright coloured ceramic coffee cups
the brief yet intense moment of carefree-ness before I wake up
an umbrella in the rain

the little mittens a baby wears to not scratch himself
baby shoes, baby jackets
babies wrapped in animal outfits

grammatical mistakes
on menus
'pork dumpings' doesn't sound too delicious

stolen glances
an eager mouth waiting to speak
a furrowed brow under the sun
