When someone is kind, friendly, or good-natured, that person is also being amiable [ey-mee-uh-buhl]. (Other good synonyms include affable, genial, and cordial.) It is a trait that I admire in others and one that I aspire towards, though I don't always succeed.

While his mother pushed him along in the shopping cart,

relishing the amiable spring day.
How would you use the word amiable?
