Turn it around {ten things}

I love how gratitude can put life into perspective.

Thinking it, saying it, writing it down.

There 's always something, someone or some little part of my day to be grateful for.

In the craziness of the past fortnight, I had to tell myself to step back and slow down.

And to remind myself {of these words} to be in the now and not worry over tomorrow. To reconnect. To be grateful.

I've found loads of ways to turn exhausted and stressed around, starting with gratitude.

And so I challenged myself this week to find ten things I'm grateful for {right now}:

1. That we have each other. And have made time for each other and fun too.

2. Our health. Everybody is healthy and happy here. Healing well {and not a sniffle in sight}.

3. The park. Three visits this week. Squeals of joy from two little girls and great exercise running after them for this mama.

4. Laughter. Making my two little girls laugh. And everyone laughing at the same time {the best sound}.

5. Yoga. I really really needed it this week. {And the inspirational conversation that followed.}

6. Thinking of you. How lovely are those three words. I've spoken them, heard them, written them and received them {in response to this post}. Thank you xx 

7. Opportunities. A few new opportunities have floated my way this week. I'm taking them {with thanks} and creating my own too.

8. Picnics. Little miss three wants every meal to be a picnic! So we're having a lot of them around here.

9. Breakfast. My favourite meal of the day. Love that all four of us have sat down to eat together this past week. Usually that never happens.

10. This weekend. And it's plans for family, friends, food and fun.

xx

What are you most grateful for? Could you find ten things?
