thankful

that i have a daughter.

for a brief interlude in the rain

that we live in a peaceful country

for winter - because it makes me appreciate the spring.

(for sickness - because it makes me appreciate good health)

for this guy (really. lots.)

that the most traumatic thing my children have experienced is jammed fingers.

that my children are warm and well fed

that none of my children have any food allergies so many others i know.

for this special 'Thank you Mummy' meal

(and, while we may get sniggers, that we are able to pray aloud in public without fear of torture or death)

xoxo
