I’m grateful for walks to the beach, and along the beach of course. I’m grateful that I can hear the ocean from here – we’re staying so close to the beach, separated only by a small park and a lot of trees. I’m also grateful for time with Ethan, who I didn’t see for a…
So grateful for a quiet day, a reflective day… it was quite cool, (and at times freezing, windy and raining) so I spent most of it indoors soaking up the sun through the glass. This pic I took from the hallway, a similar view to the one from my room. The river and all the…
My younger brother Greg is someone I’ve been grateful for most of my life! (I was nearly 6 when he arrived) I love that we live only 3 minutes drive from Greg & Nicole’s home, and enjoyed a visit today, where we enjoyed the sunshine and large trampoline in their backyard. I’m grateful for a…
I’m grateful for my gorgeous son, and grateful that he loves learning! It’s a celebration here today, as we went to Ethan’s school assembly to see him get an award. He was so excited to be awarded a Distinction in his age group, in the Science Competition, which is an international competition. A Distinction is…
Jumping out of the comfort zone! I’m grateful for a day with family today – as it was Dad’s birthday yesterday we came out to the farm for lunch. I took a few photos of everyone out on the lawn, with this blog in mind, but as the day progressed I found even more to…
Again, much to be grateful for today, when I stop to think about the quality of the words I’ve been editing today. It can be too easy to get stuck in the detail of the task and lose sight of the big inspiring picture. It’s a big editing day (and night) hence the photo of…
My brother David is in the spotlight today, as I’m so grateful for several things – that he came to visit today, and that he now has a permanent job! (he’s been recovering from a life-threatening accident since last October). He’s pictured here with Lyndon and Ethan learning a few things about the internet. I…
I’ve been sitting here contemplating the day – I have much to be grateful for – but what did I take a photo of today in my book-busy day? I’m in a silent house and suddenly startled by the “brrrring” of the Live Chat on our site. A new friend Lindsay popped in to…
Vast Blue Skies and beautiful people at the farm I grew up on are the highlights of my Gratitude today! After lunch – which I thoroughly enjoyed, Mum and my brother David were moving cattle from one place to another so I walked with them and took a few snaps. The sky was amazing –…
