Grateful Saturday for roses, sisters, miracles and fires

I can't let the last shadows of Saturday slip away without being Grateful.

Grateful for my roses. I really am.


Grateful for all the lovely bloggers who joined in  Friday Facebook Flog #FFF.
Such a lovely bunch of bloggers with fan pages you might be missing out on.

Grateful for little sisters. It's my little sister's 40th Birthday today. We might not get on 100% and don't see eye to eye (since she is much taller than me) but I love her. We had dinner out last night to celebrate with family & friends. A friend of hers looked at me and said "Sisters RIGHT ! " -   of course she shares my looks !

It also reminded me how I spent my own 40th birthday, in the special care nursery with my long awaited miracle babies, a week old, just loving and breathing them in. 

Still baby-mooning after years of infertility.I certainly never imagined having one baby let alone two a year before (when I started blogging).

I rushed home for an hour to have a baked dinner, my mum cooked, for my birthday dinner and then straight back to my precious little boys.  

Grateful for wood fires - it's very brisk here and I am looking forward to see the flames lick the split logs and throw some glorious warmth my way.


So, what's making you smile today?

It is slow combustion and it is fantastic - though w eonly have it at the farm.
How I long ofr a wood fire in the house, but alas living in QLD on the coast it doesn't get cold enough to justify one.

Your roses look gorgeous. And your boys just look so precious. Sounds like you have had a fabulous grateful week.

Thanks :) .Once you start you can find things to be grateful for every week.
Trish, that's a beautiful photo of your newborns. Aside from the fact that they needed extra care, I can't imagine a better way to spend a 40th birthday.

Happy birthday to your sister! x
