I've become quite fond of this weekly perusal through the moments of my life. There is so very much to laugh about, and feel grateful for, even in the depths of February. Here are a few moments that have made me giggle this week.
Planning the next set of stripes on Jude's Scrap Cardigan.
A man who can carry his three kids up the stairs to bed.
Dreaming of tea parties in the potting shed in Spring.
Those toes, that dress, this girl.
Silly sisters in the clothes dryer.
Having help to blow out the candles!
A quiet live concert on a winter's evening in the comfort of our kitchen.
Violet learning to print her name!
Jude's Egg Math: evidence of sorting, counting, comparing.
This bedtime ritual.
Jude's first Lift-the-Flap book: Monsters, and Numbers, and the word "the".
Do share your moments of gratitude in your comment, or a link to your own GratiTuesday post!
Does your husband always look so formal for bedtime ritual?? :) Great list as always. Jealous of all those eggs!

ReplyDeleteI was actually thinking about gratituesday this morning and was looking forward to seeing a post about it. The little things that make us happy in life! So, as I stumbled upon some bad news this morning, I am grateful for my family, my loving husband, and my life as it is. Thanks Stephanie for creating this wonderful ritual.
ReplyDeleteI too was faced with bad news this morning when I opened my Email...nothing disastrous, but definitely in the "bummer" category. Then your post reminded me there are so many little things that are awesome, if only we took the time to see them. Thanks for the reminder!!
ReplyDeleteOn this beautiful sunny February day, I am grateful for the sun and how it is starting to actually feel warm. I am thankful for my time at home. And pees in the potty (not mine :-).
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday.
I have had one helluva a week and more specifically weekend and truthfully, I was feeling like there was a lot to be frustrated by. But, I am grateful for many things.....
