Gratitude thread :)

Grateful the days are slowly getting longer. Albeit slowly.

Grateful for my family not being too sick, and for the sunshine so I can put out some washing while I'm at home 😀

Grateful my melatonin arrived safe and sound. I put off ordering more until I was almost out of the last one, and then when I did order them, I got a notification that "shipping will be delayed" because apparently they missed the plane or something. It only arrived the day after they estimated it would, so it wasn't that bad

Grateful for this lovely weather - drive to client's was much more pleasant and took ten minutes less

I'm grateful for the time I get to spend with my kids. I look them to the park on Monday and took turns taking them down the slide. They had such fun saying 'Bye bye' to each other before going down. It feels like I'm in the good old days right now and I'm lucky enough to know it

Mine are older now, and they love watching the cute videos of them doing stuff like this when they were little.

It's funny though: They're way too cool to make videos of their play, now. I try and tell them "think of how much fun it'll be in a few years to look back on the today", but nope.

My boys are too young to care about being recorded. The only problem we have is videos and photos are often of the backs of their heads because they're always so busy off doing something.

I'd rather that than disturbing them to make them pose for a photo though.

That is incredibly sweet ❤️
