7 Years of ♥

On this day 7 Years ago, I married the love of my life, my best friend, my rock, my everything.  



My darling David - I love you more than yesterday, but less than tomorrow.  
All my Love, Always

Brave

Today's Highlight:
- My two big girls had their extra MMR vaccinations this morning - without a grimace, groan or cry!

The nurses could not believe it!  I think having a lollipop unwrapped and ready to go in their little hands, just waiting for Mummy to give the all clear once the nurse finished, helped a lot!  Liezel did have a big sob though with her 12 week vacs at the same time, and unfortunately no lollipop for her yet!  Poor little poppet : (

We finished watching Precious tonight.  Absolutely awful story.  How simple we are as people: we just want to be loved and be happy.  Amazing how hard it can be to feel that sometimes.  It made me reflect upon how extremely lucky I/we are and just how much I/we have to be thankful for.  It makes me want to hug my little family and never let go.  And make sure I let them know just how much I love them and how happy they make me : )

Lucky

Tonight I started working again...

Yes I think I'm ready...
Yes I think I quite want to, quite...
But boy it's hard to sit down in front of the pc and do something other than read blogs, or feel like reading a book, or getting on with the next project or ANYTHING else!!

I had an interesting chat with my SIL today and it reminded me of the following quote from Dr Suess' Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are:



When you think things are bad,
when you feel sour and blue,
when you start to get mad...
you should do what I do!

Just tell yourself, Duckie,
you're really quite lucky!
Some people are much more...
oh, ever so much more...
oh, muchly much-much more
unlucky than you!"

Do we ever really realise how lucky we are?  Each night I think of all the things I'm thankful for...and each night I wonder how many things I forget and still take for granted...

Today's Highlights:
- Anya's response to:  "Wow, that great colouring in Anya!  Who's a clever girl?" --- "I am!" she said hiding her pleased little face and shy smile... Usually it's just a shy grin with "No I'm not!"
- Arranging a shopping date with a friend!

I really don't enjoy clothes shopping much for many reasons... but it will be fun going on an outing with a friend and expanding my current wearable wardrobe of one pair of jeans and two tops!

And I've decided that on top of everything else I want to learn to crotchet!  Might have to put that one off for a little while!
