Parenting Tips | I am grateful for my children because…….

I am grateful for my children because…….

Ooh - MamaBlogga is holding her November group writing project and I am just squeaking in this entry before the coach turns back into a pumpkin!

I am grateful for my children because…..

  1. they make me laugh,
  2. they make me cry,
  3. I always have someone to play with,
  4. I always have someone to talk to,
  5. I have met some of my closest friends through my children (actually my children are my closest friends, although they may not realize that yet),
  6. they give me something to talk about,
  7. my children help me to appreciate the quiet times amidst the chaos,
  8. I know they will grow up too fast too soon so I am grateful for their childhood,
  9. I always have someone to photograph,
  10. they continuously bring love and happiness into my life.

I love MamaBlogga’s group writing projects - they all revolve around motherhood and kids. You can read my entries to her September project and May project here. And thank you Jordan (MamaBlogga) for hosting these projects and giving us an opportunity to meet other awesome MamaBlogga’s!

    I agree wholeheartedly with each and every one of those reasons! They are such wonderful little creatures and mine make me laugh and cry regularly! Heaven help me when they hit puberty!
    Thanks for visiting and clicking! I’m pretty excited about being on there and lasting 4 days now!!

    This is great. You’ve managed to put it across so much more clearly and succintly than me.
