The cooing of babies. My grandson at 5yrs of age. The family lived in an old house with a bathtub but no shower. One weekend at our home I told him to take a shower and he looked at me like, Oh Oh. But I talked him into it and I left the bathroom door open to make sure he would be okay. Well, to my wonderful surprise as I walked by I heard him singing at the top of his voice; the sound of that will live within me always. Can you tell he is my hearts treasure.

I love storms, the rain, wind ,thunder all of it. Everyone tells me that is how I will die . LOL (struck by lightening)
I go out and set in my rocking chair and rock away and just enjoy it.

There is nothing sweeter than childrens voices. I miss my grandchildren very much and was ecstatic when five moved next door just so I could listen to them. My kids and older grandkids used to laugh at me because I would just watch the kids and now some of them finally get it.

I love to hear the wind rattle the window panes. In my house I can't hear it but in older homes it is a reminder of being snug and warm at home or my granny's. I'm 66 but it still makes me feel comfortable. Growing up we didn't have central air and when it was really cold there would be tons of quilts on the bed and it was hard to turn over. I have my bedroom cold with a window unit, even in winter, because it makes me feel safe and warm.

All lovely sounds! None of us realize how fortunate we are to hear. My stepdtr is deaf and just had a cochlear implant put in 2 wks ago. she will have it activated week after next. I asked her what would be the first thing she would want to hear, she said music so she could sing and dance!

All of the sounds listed above and the special one...the sound thread makes as I pull it through the quilt layers, almost like a whisper.

The sound of the breeze through our pine trees. Heavenly.

I like hearing a river. The sound lulls me to sleep when we camp.

I love to hear teenagers and older children laughing.
