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 immortalized here on the page, so I will always remember.
This photo was taken last week. This week we have been thwarted by illness, meaning Baby and I have barely left the house.
This week I have loved;
- Playing mega blocks with Baby. She points to a block and says ‘more’ then to the top of the tower and says ‘up here’, repeat ad infinitum!
- Listening to Baby count to ten. So cute!
- Lovely messages from friends checking how Baby and I were.
- Although it is awful when your child is ill, I enjoyed a couple of lovely cuddles when Baby fell asleep on me.
- We had a lovely trip to Peppa Pig World last weekend.
- My wonderful husband who took time off work to look after Baby and I while we were ill.
- Finding a new dog sitter a week and a half before our holiday. Phew!
- My wonderful blogging friends, some of which contributed to this post.
- Making arrangements to stay with a friend before Blogtacular, so I can join in with the dinner the night before.
- Ordering my gifted dresses for BritMums Live!
So what are you grateful for this week?
