A few months ago my sister-in-law recommended that I do a weekly themed post...she does mommy monday. I've had the idea of Thankful Thursdays in my mind for at least a month but it seemed I was either posting something else on Thursdays or just didn't get around to blogging at all. So welcome to my long thought-out finally executed post! Now, let me preface all these posts by saying I am thankful for many, many things from basic needs, simple tasks or ideas all the way to the big (biggest being God of course) but I'm going to try and focus on one 'thing' each Thursday or at least a series of related 'things'. And that's also not to say that Thursday is the only day I'm thankful. :)
Today I am thankful for play dates. Will, Maggie and I went to our friend Deanna's to play with her son that's not yet school-age and the little boy she watches (who actually slept the whole time). We had a lot of fun! Will and Cason demolished his room, pulling out cars, trucks, legos, action figures, you name it. Maggie fell asleep on the way over but woke up shortly before lunch; she had fun playing with keys, frogs and even grabbed a helicopter once. She got a good mix of belly time, floor time and being held! Deanna and I had a great time catching up....it's nice that the boys are getting old enough now that we don't have to constantly watch or interfere and we actually had some great conversation time. We always hit it off really well and words flow easily between us. Don't you love when that happens? We were there for over 3 hours and it felt like a few minutes. Of course, days like this also make me thankful for being a SAHM because without that, play dates wouldn't be possible (at least during the week and work hours). Which also makes me thankful for having a great husband who works so hard to be a good provider. See what I mean about series of things? Haha
