So, my old friends from school, Heather and Brad have started a thing on their blog where they "assign" a letter to each other (or others in this case) and you have to come up with 10 things that begin with that letter that you love. My letter is L - now, let's see how easy this is:
1. LUCY! Of course she (Heather) gave me L for Lucy! She is our first born, and will likely be our only child. She truly is the apple of my eye. Not a day goes by that I don't thank God that she is with us. It scares me to think she's almost 6 months old already - but at the same time I am eager to watch her learn and grow. I LOVE YOU LUCY!
2. LAUGHTER - without it, my world would be such a boring place.
3. LOVE - I love my husband, our family, my career, our home. Without Silas, I'd not have Lucy, and without Lucy, we'd not have our family or the need for our cozy home in which we all live.
4. LIFE - Life is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get. - it's so true. My life is sometimes a roller coaster ride in my head, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
5. LISTENING - I love to listen to Lucy "talk". It is the sweetest sound in the entire world. Silas and I are fortunate to have a happy baby, nearly all the time. We wake up to her coo-ing over the baby monitor almost every day.
6. LONGING - I long for a stable relationship with my father. I want Lucy to know her grandpa. I don't know what else to say about this - other than what I've said.
7. LAZY DAYS - I love lazy days of doing nothing - days where the only decsion I HAVE to make is which pair of pajama bottoms I am going to wear around the house and what I want to eat (which, believe it or not can be a very difficult decision for me to make!)
8. LOUISE - It's my old middle name. I ditched it when Silas and I got married. I thought it sounded "old lady" - truth be told, now that I don't have it, I kind of miss it.
9. LASAGNA - One of my all time favorite foods. I could probably eat it every day - especially if my mom makes it. For some reason, hers is the best!
10. LEARNING - I learn something new about myself almost every day. I'm not afraid to grow old. In fact, I tend to embrace my age and look forward to learning new things about myself (and others) every day!
Well, this wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. You should see Heather and Brads answers - MUCH longer than mine!

Our answers are longer only because we talk too much! ;0)
Love your list...you made it look to easy. Maybe I should have given you "Z" after all! I love that you put laughter on your list because that is exactly what comes to my mind when I think of you. I can always picture your smile and hear your laugh, which hasn't changed in all of the years I have known you.
Great List!!!
Mrs. Nurse Boy (aka Heather ;0)
