This week I am grateful for...

I have been following Maxabella loves...and especially loved her blog post about Dealing with Difficult People #5 - Toddlers.  My darling daughter Moo is 99.9% of the time a beautiful, delightful and happy little girl.  But this week, she has cut three molars and consequently, it's been a looooong week with plenty of tanties and tears.  Every Mama out there has sympathised with me and I know that I will get my beautiful girl back when the naughty teeth have decided to stop causing her grief....and hopefully that day comes verrrry soon!! 

So, with reading Maxabella loves - I have decided to join in on the fun with "I'm grateful for..." because it is after a week, that you really need to focus on the bigger picture!  

This week I am grateful for....

Swimming dates with our special friends - where the kids get to be kids and the Mamas get to relax, laugh and wet our feet under the hose!  

It's the simple things in life.....

Go and play over at Maxabella loves.....  I can assure you that you will have a great read daily with this gorgeous blog!

  4. Oh my goodness, that is a gorgeous photo!! And I so get you about the simple things in life often being the best, sometimes it really is that easy. Your swimming date sounds like bliss for both the mums and bubs. Hope you get some relief from those teeth and enjoy the weekend. Alison

  11. I think if I cut three molars in a week the rest of the family would know about it too!! Now that they have arrived I am sure you'll have a better week and she will feel like playing with her friends on those lovely playdates you mention.
