Hello, My name is Shan. I am a 30 something year old mum to gorgeous identical twin girls and while this keeps me pretty flat out
which means i say out aloud things that i am grateful for while i am making the beds each morning
occasionally i like to share
so here's 10 things i'm grateful for right now
my washing machine - we often complain about how much washing we have to do but imagine having to actually wash it all by hand like my nana used to!!
snuggles with girls - they are trying to not nap anymore and are so tired and grumpy that sometimes we just snuggle up together and i love it
the local swimming pool - it brings the girls so much joy
my hubby - he's my rock
living in australia - need i say anymore :)
the people i have met online since starting missy melly
running water
my life
being able to spend so much time with my girls while they are young
the internet
have a beautiful day

For a while there I kept a gratitude journal. A good exercise to do.
you know, one of my earliest memories is watching my mama wash our clothes on one of those scrubbing boards, over the grass, in the backyard. And this was the early 80s! We'd just moved to Australia, didn't know anyone, and there wasn't much money to spare. I was 3, my twin sisters were 18 months, and I have no idea how my darling mama did it. Every time I have a bad day (admittedly, thankfully, they're not very often) all I have to do is think of how much more she struggled, with no money, and no-one to help, and I feel like a bit sooky-la-la and snap myself right out of it :)
Merry Christmas to you and your gorgeous family.xxx
