Because we were so, so sick, I had to take last week off. Trust me, it wasn't pretty. And with today's snow, I nearly forgot that it was Monday and time for another grateful post. Here goes...
I am so incredibly grateful that we are finally feeling better.
I am grateful for snow (at last!).
I am grateful for a husband who does the grocery shopping (and most of the cooking too).
I am grateful for extra family time together.
I am grateful that I finally decided that it was a good idea to go to bed early, even if it means I get much less done each day.
I am grateful for girls' night and for friends who always make me laugh.
I am grateful that we are a part of a pediatrics practice where the doctor herself often answers the phone, and where I don't have to wait for answers.
I am grateful for long-overdue visits with mama friends.
I am grateful for 10 months of mothering my sweet girl.
What are you feeling grateful for today?
Oh I so love having a husband that grocery shops and cooks, too!
And the snow...at long last the snow....
I had the evil bug last week, too...and share in the joy of wellness...and good friends!
See you Thursday!

10 months already????!!! They do grow fast, don't they?
Yesterday I was grateful for a baby who learns to enjoy her toys a bit more with every passing day. That means I have a bit more time for myself!!!!!

Look at Thea the snowbunny!
E. likes snow in the abstract. The IDEA of snow. Pretty snow out the window. "Snow!" she says, so happily.
But all that turned to ruin when we actually went outside and got her boots near it. DISASTER! Tears! Despair!
Can't believe little Thea is 10 months old.
Oh, hey. Just reconnected with an old friend who keeps a great blog at http://goodhappyday.blogspot.com/
and also writes a column at Babycenter: http://blogs.babycenter.com/momformation/category/week-of-wonders/
I think you (and your readers) would like both. She's a great writer and thinks smartly about raising a family, creatively and concertedly, in this time and place.

I am grateful for a husband with eternal patience for me when I'm frustrated, and for induction dates that are only two weeks away... (the 16th!).

I'm grateful my little guy is starting to walk- what fun it is to see him teetering and wobbling around!
I'm grateful for my son's laugh- is there a funner sound in the universe?
Glad you are getting to bed early, I've been doing this for several months now (head to bed by 8:30-9) and it really works.
