think happy thoughts

I am thankful for....

♥ my beautiful little boy who is full of one-liners at the moment that have me in stitches: 

• "that's genius!" {in response to being told he could go for a walk with daddy after work}
  
• "well I never" {discovering daddy's thong he threw down the back stairs}
• "I'm eating my winner" {in response to me asking him what he was doing when I hear noises of concentration coming from the back seat of the car}

♥ the hundred or so kisses he gave me as he was falling asleep tonight each preceded with a "thankyou mummy for {....}"

♥ my gorgeous girl getting up on two feet a lot today, finally getting ready to take her first steps - it won't be long now

♥ the fact that I am able to stay at home to raise my children (as much as it has its enormous challenges)

♥ that I have been able to breastfeed both of my children with relative ease, my boy for 12 months, and my little girl for about 15 months (have only just stopped)

♥ a husband who respects me and my role as mother of his children and recognises the important work I do at home for all of us 

♥ a supportive extended family who loves us unconditionally, especially my parents who will drop everything to help me out when needed
