big kids who have fun ideas and can execute much more of them themselves
birthday cake dreaming for my sweet almost 6 year old
cake idea from this book
sweet friends
lip licking good hot cocoa on an unexpectedly snowy afternoon
hand me down dresses that are so much fun to wear, green lantern symbols drawn on by her brother and that smile
aunts who quilt and give generously and a daughter who likes to play pretend
that homeschooling can happen anywhere and that our car dealership service area has a fish pond
also, that my kids are enamored with and curious about nature wherever they may find it
another aunt who gave us a chick-fil-a gift card which led to a fun treat of breakfast out after taking the car into the shop
the "after a library trip quiet" that comes as they pour through the new offerings
a fixed and ready to go car, fun kids to spend my days with and that we were all still smiling at this point in a long day!
Nana's who host St. Patrick's Day parties and fun cousins building leprechaun traps!
a visit from Granddad!
that all of our grandparents love, share and promote reading
really good friends and the unexpected discovery of a whole patch of blooming crocus in our neighborhood!!!!!
that I get to homeschool . . . I am very grateful for this life . . .
bracelets from Kenya
braids
the margin in a day to try hairstyles before hiking
the young woman she is growing up to be
(and her fashion sense!)
my strong boy
handsome husband and that my kids love their grandparents
pretty girl
good friends
her enthusiasm and all her words
stop me in my tracks views during errands
spring meals coming up
their insatiable appetites for learning and trying new things
What are you thankful for this week?
