How do I keep thinking up new titles for very similar posts???!

Today I'm thankful for the little buddies my 5 yr old has at his little school, and for the fun he had with the one who came round for a play afterwards today. They made a castle from our junk modelling box, played with the new marble run, and also with the Nerf gun and a target they made (though 2 yr old's head was also used as such... They involved him very well in everything else though...) I'm thankful for cheese and bread which see us through many an ill-planned day! For memory-making torential rain on the way to school this morning when we couldn't see in front of us! For being stretched and moulded by challenges and for being encouraged and edified by understanding people. For the fact that the smell of dirty, damp laundry is starting to be counterbalanced by the smell of clean laundry in our bedroom. For playing with my son and his reception class and toddlers most of the morning and part of the afternoon :) For a walk in the dark up the lane with my 5 yr old having survived the 'hazel' (as his friend called the hail - I said "Ooh, can you hear something at the window?" and he ran to look out and exclaimed excitedly, "It's hazel!" Had me wondering for a moment..). For being reunited and catching up with the other families in our school after the Christmas break, and for my children sleeping well last night, which will have helped my eldest with being back today, and also helped me - I felt awake all day - bonus! For getting lots of housework done while my little one had a nap, and for chatting with him sitting on the side while I did the washing up after he'd woken, and he was getting into everything in the cupboards up on the side. And for my Christmas present from my husband which I finally got today! - 'How Clean Is Your House' series 1 & 2!! (I did ask for it :) )

Aww, lots to be thankful for - who'd have thought! How lovely :)
