Grateful


This week, possibly for the first time in my whole life, I am grateful for wearing glasses. When chopping a chili, some juice splashed onto my face - my glasses stopped some chili juice going into my eyes.

This week I am (trying to be) grateful that Zoe caught my sore throat, her big sisters runny nose and cough and she was cutting two teeth all at the same time - it has been an exhausting week, but it could have been worse if all these ailments had been spread out over a few weeks. It looks like she is on the mend, and we hope to get some more sleep soon.

Today I am grateful for a delicious home cooked roast lunch and cake with lovely friends. Sipping champagne, relaxed conversations and watching all our girls play together - this is the life.

Pop in and visit Maxabella-land for more gratefulness.

Happy Saturday to you.

Cat.

  3. Oh Cat your funny! I love your sense of humour!

    What am I grateful for? I love life, full stop. I love everything around me and everyone in my life. I am grateful of life.

    Love to you, Chris and the girls

  4. Your second point shows that you can see the bright side - and this is something you can be grateful for too!

    Roast, bubbles, friends, happy kids - that sounds heaven!
