~Gratitude Sunday~

Sunday's heart felt tradition. A time to slow down, to reflect, to be grateful.

My list of gratitudes for this week:

• a lovely friend from Australia, who never fails to make me smile
• a best friend who calls me just when I need to hear from her.
• children who get excited over the food I prepare
• children who love to play with each other.
• the smell of fresh bread baking in the oven first thing in the morning
• a crockpot filled with supper for this evening
• rain that is melting all the snow and maybe heralding the coming of spring some time soon.
• A baby boy whose favorite pass time is watching his sisters while bouncing himself to sleep in his bouncy seat. 
• A fun feast to celebrate the Chinese New Year and our studies of China.
• A fun day celebrating Valentines Day together.
• Quiet evenings with Prince Charming, stretched out together watching our shows.
