Grateful for....a quiet week



After having a lot on my plate over the last few weeks, this week was so very needed.

A quiet week at home, a to-do list I could work on but didn't have to, and not a lot of running around - it's been fantastic.

So things I'm grateful for :

1 - A sleeping toddler. The mostly quiet week at home has been great for both Levi and I. Levi has been having a two hour nap each morning, which allows me to get the house sorted and do a little creating. And he has been a much happier child for it, and that, in turn, has made our days so much more relaxing.

2 - Catching up with friends - you know the type of friends where you can just hang out over a coffee and the conversation flows easily, as does the laughter? Good times.

3 - Creative time. Finally working on what's been in my sketchbooks and brain, and loving it!

Joining in with Maxabella Loves and Kymmie from A Day in the Life of Us - why not pop over and play along too?

    Toddler naps and creative time are the best! It's amazing how much you can actually get done in two hours! :)

    I love it when kids have such a great sleep! Mine sleep at all different times now, but sometimes, just maybe once a week they are all sleeping at the same time... and its bliss!
