Monday

I got this from Jenty (she has a cool new blog by the way).I've seen this before & done it before.

Outside my window… It's a crystal clear & starry, starry night , and it's not raining

I am thinking... that I need to clear my google reader hubby has gone to bed for an early night and now the teen is off the phone there is silence. Bliss.

I am thankful for… My husband of 20yrs & 5 days ...our special day together.That we can love, laugh, forgive and move on .

My sweet little boys...and that I got my camera back.

I am wearing… (tonight) Pj short bottoms blue & white with hearts & a white t shirt.

I am remembering… that I need to get the things out for pancakes for breakfast tomorrow.It's Shrove Tuesday or otherwise Pancake Tuesday. As a christian I don't observe it for that reason. Jesus is my way.

I am going… to save up to buy a new fixed lens for my camera

I am currently reading… "Handle with Care" by Jodi Piccoult.It's quite challenging on many fronts. I should be reading your blog though !

I am hoping…I find what I need to start and so the accountant can finish our tax return.

On my mind …selling our home.

Noticing that… I have a lot of packing to do if we do sell our house.

Pondering … why ! Also can anyone tell me the mystery of popcorn kernel.

From the kitchen… leftover Kahlu`a ganache (~ though I think I left out the Kahlua) on a spoon (thanks Sarah) , Choc walnut brownies (in hiding) and currently 'germinating' a batch of Easiyo Strawberry yoghurt (this time I am not cheating) for my pancakes tomorrow.

Around the house… messy constantly with 3yr old twins who love boxes bags & dragging them everywhere filled with everything they pull from wardrobes/drawers & toy boxes. Plus a lazy teenager. Though the house is actually quite tidy since we de-cluttered & cleaned because we had the agent coming for an appraisal.

One of my favorite things… uh oh I can't chose just 1 - my family, you & connecting with friends. Eating comes in a close second, followed by my computer & camera.

Ps I am especially thankful my DH sets the dishwasher everynight ...though it just went off or rather on !

Never miss a post

Today I am thankful ...

that I was blessed with the privilege of being a mum to 4 (~ one angel ~ and 3 lively sons - when at the darkest moments in my life I thought it would happen)

especially today.... the joy of watching S & J having fun with water on a sunny, spring day and my Mum sharing this joy with me.

I was happy to hear the news my sister & her husband are hoping to gift a little girl , S (9) an 'adoptive'/foster Mummy & Daddy (after her mum, J [our cousin] passed away at 41 ~ 4 years ago - Bowel /Ovarian Cancer). I hoped a few years ago that we could have been gifted her ! but due to circumstances beyond our control it was not to be at that time.

Sadly, she has suffered horribly at the hands of people,who should have loved her to pieces. Nobody was there to cherish and nurture a sweet but sad little girl who missed her mummy till her granddad rescued her late last year . I hope from now on all she knows are the greatest joys in life, to love and be loved .

this is so funny - Cause I am the Mom ...

and you know it is so true !
