Please tell me something small that you are thankful for today.

[moondog]

Not the big stuff (eg health,kids,waking up every day and so on) just the more frivolous stuff.

I am doing something with a group of pre-teens tomorrow for Thanksgiving and all contributions wouldhelp greatly.

Though all 3 of my kids are sick ( dd1 has cold, other 2 have cold + vomiting & diahorreah, adn dh is away working till tomorrow night), they are all in bed asleep at 8.15, which I am very thankful for!! I now have the eb=vening to myself to fall asleep in front of the TV with a glass of wine and the 'Friends' reruns on E4 I have been recording all week!!

Sweet potatoes.

I can still have my weekly ham, egg and chips without the fattening chips and still lose weight at slimming world.

My dd [5] said that I made her day better today because i was in it! I am in it everyday by the way

Burying my nose in ds's silky hair (he's 4 mo)

Dd2 wrapping her arms around my neck and saying, 'Goodnight, angel' at bedtime, becuase that is what I say to her (she's two and a half and a late talker)

Making cheese and potato pie with dd1, then surprising her by making a smiley face in peas on her portion, and her saying it was the best dinner ever (she's 4 and a half).

Moondog, I am grateful for the long walk I took in Chatsworth gardens and grounds today with my son and my friend. It reminds me how beautiful the passing of time is.

Haven't read the thread but..

As a family we spent nearly an hour before bed time playing TOGETHER and dh really enjoyed it. As did the children (of course)

V important imo

my two girls being healthy and strong

Ah should have read the 1st bit 1st
dd2 wobbling around as she's just learn't to stand up, with her big cheesy grins
dd1 telling me totally unprompted that she loves me

Fog this morning. "Look mummy, the clouds are sleeping on the ground"

am thankful that dp kept dd busy downstairs while i snuggled up in bed with ds feeding him and getting some much needed sleep.

oh and figuring out today that when dd moves her arms as if throwing something at us and yells 'wahvoo' shes trying to say 'love you'. adorable!

My period - in fact my whole family are very thankful.

I write my diary every night and in that I write my "5 thank-yous of the day" ...

• my DH got home late and went into the spar room ... so as not to wake me with his AWFUL snoring ...
• my DH went to the tip for me
• my DH washed my car
• my DH went to the chinese for us
• my DH just gave me another glass of wine

so .... my one small thank-you is ....

• thank-you for my DH

that the "unconventionals" are likely to be booted out of X-factor

My Dd's silly dance that she does to her musical donkey! Crackin' Always makes me happy!

watching son play football in the crisp cold sunshine and the fact that he saved loads of goals and was man of the match

DS looked out the window this morning and said "Look Mommy, the frost dragon came by"

my DD has gone ona camping sleepover .... and it's not raining ....

Made a cake, assisted by ds (age 5), 2 Playmobil firemen, and a helicopter! Firemen "tested" the sultanas, and helicopter flew over the cake before it was put in oven. Ds helped with stirring and extra testing of sultanas and currants.

that i washed up before i went to bed. so nice to wake up to a clean kitchen.

oh and that dh returns from his works outward bounds w/e tomorrow. just wanna snog his face off!!! Gorgeous beautiful yummy man of mine!!!
