Three Things: I can't hear enough...

There are many things we all enjoy hearing. And somethings we wish to never hear. But these are three things I will never get tired of hearing no matter how many times it's said:

1) "You're pretty" - even though I often roll my eyes when the Man of the House says it - and often I don't feel even the tiniest bit pretty and have a hard time believing it - I love hearing him say it and knowing he thinks it (even when I don't). I know, I know... I should want to be told I'm smart. Or capable. And I like that too. But there's just something about having the man I adore tell me I'm pretty that I can't get enough.

2) "Oma" - I love love love being a grandma. And it just makes me all sappy to hear that sweet little boy call me his Oma! He could say it a million times a day and I don't think I could ever get tired of it!

3) "I love you" - whether it's the Man of the House, one of the offspring, the grand baby, my sisters or parents or a close friend. I mean really... who doesn't enjoy hearing that they are loved? Especially from someone they feel the exact same way about!
