I love the process of writing a weekly gratitude list, as it ensures I consciously take in the small, but lovely things that happen every day. Then, they are immortalised here on the page, so I will always remember.
This week I have loved;
- My wonderful husband, who came home from work early and then drove to Reading to get me a new phone. (I was getting stressed about not being able to hear people when they called!)
- My amazing blogging friends, who supported me and jumped to my aid when someone started using my blog header, as their Twitter header. #GetYourOwn!
- Our new TV. It was so frustrating not being able to turn our other one on!
- Hand feeding and stroking a swan!
- Listening to Baby say the new words she has learned recently, Cracker, Ham, Cheese, Lou Lou and Lily (L and L are our dogs!).
- Watching Baby run round showing off her new shoes.
- Listening to Baby sneeze and then say ‘Achoo’. So adorable!
- The our (Hannah and mine) new linky, #TheList is doing really well, with almost 40 linkee’s last week!
- Watching Baby reading her personalised book, pointing to a picture of her and Mr Hubby saying ‘Dada’.
- That Baby now requests that she wears her new wellies for breakfast.
So what are you grateful for this week?

What a great list! Someone actually stole our blog header and claimed it as their own!!? That makes me angry and happy that eventually you found out about it.
Your list has made me realize I should really take some time to write down the cute phrases my son is now saying. He’s gone from baby babbling to speaking two languages almost over night….they change so quickly.
Thank you for the inspiration!

Yes hun, they took it and used it for their twitter header, because they liked it. She didn’t know she wasn’t allowed to just take artwork from people. x
Such a great list, and such a good idea. I have many weeks where I look back and think how grateful I am for little things. xxxx
Love it when they come up with new words and some that sound like it bless them.
Weekly gratitude list is such a great idea, something I will definitely be trying myself.
It sounds like your little one is at a similar stage to mine, discovering the world and new words – I love this age.
Thanks for the great post.
