52 Weeks of Gratitude – Week Thirty Nine

52 weeks of gratitude

* grateful for friends who lend use of their washing machine when ours broke – full of a load of cloth nappies! Of all the things to be washing when it broke huh?
* also grateful for the brand spanking new washing machine that is now in my kitchen… big 8kg drum means I can keep on top of the mountain of laundry the six of us produce!
* morning snuggles with Baya – Vega fed at half 6 and went back to sleep, so Baya and I got to snuggle in my bed just like the old days
* this online world… when you’re home all day with four kiddos, it’s so nice to have friends just a few taps of the keyboard away to chat too
* Laura’s gingerbread latte recipe – coffee has been needed this week
* Baby smiles… definite smiles from Mr Vega this week… I’ve yet to capture it on camera {or at least a non-blurry photo} but it’s so cute

    I’m very grateful that this morning I was able to find an umbrella, that I met someone for coffee and they bought me a lovely chai latte and that when I got to work I was given a bowl of mixed nuts :-)

    Not grateful that my son isn’t well today, but very grateful for how lovely he is – telling me what a great mum I am for looking after him!! He’s a sweetie.
    Have a great weekend. I like the sound of your snuggles!!

    I would be very grateful for your friend kindly lending their washing machine, whatever id we do before automatic washing machines?

    I’m really liking the idea of listing the things to be grateful for

    Thank goodness for your friend, not having a washing machine with a tiny baby is not funny. I love our 8kg drum too. :)

    Oh what a lovely little list!

    Once you go larger on the washing machine, you’ll never look back. Ours is 12kg and I don’t know how I’d cope without it.

    Aww snuggles are the best. We are a family of 6 so I appreciate how stressful the washing machine incident must’ve been, but yay to new one! I was actually thinking last night as I put my twins to bed, how happy that makes me. How, above anything else in the world, I love my kiddies and being with them. Don;t need anything else x

    We bought a new washing machine a few months ago, I was so excited. A sign I’m getting old! x

    What a wonderful list. It is so important to be grateful for all of the little things as it is often those that keep us sane and warm our hearts more than the big things which are less regular. Plus someone loaning you the use of their washing machine is rather big :-) xxx
