In a recent article I read (here) it mentioned the importance of thankfulness, and how even the act of looking for things to be thankful for had a positive effect on you. So when you're having a tough week, search out those things you can be thankful for... even if it's something simple.
It's been a super busy month around here with birthdays and trips galore - tonnes of things to be thankful for.
Things like...
Our eldest boy turning 18! His and Symon's birthday are 2 days apart, so they both had a busy and fun long weekend with friends celebrating.
Jasher is such a precious guy and we are so blessed with the lovely guy he has grown into. Seriously though, where have the last 18 years gone!?!?!?
Love these guys so much!
Thankful for braces (again!) and the funny as experience of watching your daughter with laughing gas (see here!). So cute!
Thankful for our dining room renovations... they may be coming along suuuuuper slowly, but they are coming along...
Thankful for coffee (can I get an amen!?). We've been given some delicious beans to try lately - I'll never say no to sampling coffee beans! Still have to say that Merito coffee beans are some of my favourite (see here if you want to check out great beans!)...
Thankful for a recent conference we were able to attend with some of our amazing church team. Totally recommend Life Conference in Auckland, NZ - can't wait for next year.
Loooooved catching up with some of our favourites while in Auckland - so good!!
Here's to keeping thankful, and remembering that even if it's hard to find things, keep searching!
