365 Days Of Gratitude. In May I was grateful for...

I have seen many people on social media list something every day that they are grateful for and thought I would join in and have on my private Facebook account every day and I thought I would share here too.

I did this for the whole of last year and it has really made me realise that even on the bad day's I have something to be grateful for.

  1. SO many wonderful things to be thankful for. I love Ellie's new pierced ears. We came home from vacation to find that my mother in law and my oldest had mowed the lawn for us and we were so thankful to have one less thing to do.

  2. I loved reading this! I always say I'm going to try this and then I forget. I was trying to think of what I was thankful for in May when my load of washing finished. So I went to hang it up and I saw that I had accidentally put my husbands favourite and best going out wool jumper in the wash with the rest of the dark colours. I am so grateful that it hasn't shrunk! So now I can start my June list of things to be grateful for!
