The Giggle!

I love giggles. ^.^ An honest giggle will always put a smile on my face. The dictionary defines a giggle as the following:

verb, -gled, -gling, noun –verb (used without object)

1.	to laugh in a silly, often high-pitched way, esp. with short, repeated gasps and titters, as from juvenile or ill-concealed amusement or nervous embarrassment.

–noun

2.	a silly, spasmodic laugh; titter.

I think there is more to this than what the definition tells us. To me a giggle is a burst of happiness that escapes oneself. A giggle is not caused by a joke or tickling but often by some outside source not meant at making you laugh. An example.... when the phone rings with someone you are wanting to talk to on the other line and a burst of excitement and happiness escapes you for a second in a pleasantly cute audible short burst of laughter. Or when someone smiles at you that you adore and its so cute that you have to let it out in a giggle. Things that make you laugh that aren't really intended that way. I know someone with the most adorable giggle that makes my heart flutter and my breath stop for a second. ^.^
