Favorite Things

My husband said that I should share my reversioned song with you, so here it is. Keep in mind that these are not all things that I have currently, and they aren't *all* of my favorite things.

My version of this song reminds me to be happy for today, for tomorrow, and for all the tomorrows to come.

Polka-dot panties and long flowing dresses,
A wait staff I pay to clean up all my messes,
A personal chef and some glittering rings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Cool summer mornings and warm cups of coffee,
A houseful of kids who will all call me mommy,
Little girls' laughter, the songs that they sing,
These are a few of my favorite things.

In the darkness,
In the hard times,
When I'm feeling sad, 
I'll choose to remember my favorite things, 
And then I won't feel so bad!

Long springtime road trips and winter vacations,
Swimming with dolphins and great conversations,
Seeing the homes of my ancestors' kings, 
These are a few of my favorite things.

Shopping in mall stores instead of on websites,
Store bookshelves lined with all the books that I'll write,
Helping my friends to achieve all their dreams,
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the path is
Hard to follow, 
When I've lost my way, 
I'll remember with joy all my favorite things
And I know I'll win the day!

And as someone recently told me: "Never be embarrassed of what makes you happy!"
