#100Happydays -2

#100Happydays -1

 I decided to participate in the #100Happydays Project and I figured as this is my Gratitude Blog that I'd add the pictures here too!

Today I'm happy that we spent so much time playing such a huge variety of things. Especially that there was lots of outside activity. I really loved taking the video of Tama and then watching him as he watched himself when I played it back. I am grateful for an almost 2 year old who can make choices about what he wants to do and can sustain an activity for a reasonable period. I am grateful to live in a place where the weather is fabulous almost year round.

Today I am grateful for the complete and utter satisfaction that comes from getting all the washing done, hung, dry and mostly put away. And for taking the time to clean Merenia's room, get rid of unwanted clothes and drop them off the the clothing bin... done sorted out of the way. I'm so grateful that I have the time to do this in one day.

It's Mother's Day. I completely love my children. I love the opportunity to raise them everyday. I love the lessons they teach me every day. I love the wonder and the uniqueness they bring to my life. I love watching them and the feeling of pride I get simply from their everyday activity. I am so grateful to have them in my life.

I love antibiotics.

I love the evenings when the Hooting Frog is not.

I totally love Cathy Zielske's sense of humour!

I love that it's a new month so there are new challenges and new tasks to complete and learn from for OLW and MMEW.

I really love reading Karen Grunbergs reflections on life, the universe and everything. I feel like I can identify with or learn from most things she says.

I love doing a few classes at Big Picture Classes even if they aren't what I was expecting.

I love that tomorrow is a kindy day.

I love that I have great technology at my fingers that works.

I love that we basically managed to stay at home two days in a row (no shopping except Milk).

I love getting great feedback on my scrapbook LO's from strangers.

I love that the discussion I had with my son tonight was calm and well done.

I love that I stopped the god-awful noise the plant was making against the fence.

I love that I made the Fire Flash from Thunderbirds today for Will. And I love that Kieran helped him make the elevator cars.

I love old school cartoons- especially Loony Tunes and Mickey Mouse when he was totally black and white.

I love Tamas softy softy skin.

I love that my Grandma is coming back to Australia. I'll love it more if she is happy to be here.

I love that my Aunty Louise is super happy, had a great wedding, awesome dress and now has a super cool husband.

I love that living in Perth there is no pressure to go visit anyone.

I love sharing cool stuff with my friends via facebook, pinterest and email.

I love the possibilities of new friends on the horizon.

I love the opportunity to stay at home with my kids each day.

I love how watching Q&A today on the ABC made me see myself a little clearer.
