abigail on "one simple joy."
Because I am a very lucky woman, every morning my husband Steven gets up, walks the dogs, makes coffee and brings it to me in bed! By the way, when I say he brings me coffee, I mean he brings the most delicious cappuccino you’ve ever had. Honestly, I can’t understand what the heck he does (I’ve tried!), but it’s so good that it’s not fair to all the other husbands who make their wives coffee.
It’s the best way anyone could start the day, but the thing that makes me happiest happens just after I’ve finished my coffee and head downstairs.
One of our dogs, Ollie, waits at the bottom of the stairs wagging his tail with excitement like he hasn’t seen me in a week. As soon as I hit the bottom step he flips over on his back as if to say, “What took your so long, lazy bones? My belly needs some scratching!” It makes me laugh every single time.

I can attest to Abigail's claim that her husband makes the best coffee ever, since I've been lucky enough to have that coffee on numerous occasions. And yes, those dogs are the cutest.
What a sweet sweet start to a day!
