Thursday Thankfulness
Thankfully, the weather has cooperated and everyone is back in school today! That means I can actually make my post at a reasonable time. So this week, I am thankful:
- For only having one casualty of the school cancellation yesterday: our trampoline. DH made the mistake of jumping on it with MM and the rest is history (so is the trampoline). But it could have been worse. There was a sort of chair sculpture, very reminiscent of the one in Poltergeist II, that could have been a real disaster. Gus was feeling particularly creative, but oddly he was not the destroyer yesterday.
- For being able to go work with my prenatal yoga client today. After 2 weeks of Holiday break followed by school delays and cancellations, I really needed to get away for some adult time.
- For Gus learning how to meet some of his own needs even if he can’t always express them. This morning, MM got a bad splinter stuck deep in her finger. As soon as Gus heard this, he started looking for hiding places, because he knew she was going to be crying at some point. When he realized his first hiding spot wasn’t getting him far away enough, he went up to his room, closed the door, and got into another of his favorite hideaways. He’s grown enough to be proactive about avoiding the things that disturb him instead of waiting until he’s at the edge of his rope! Go Gus!
What are you thankful for today?
P.S. Opinions on the new header would be greatly appreciated. I won’t be able to change the layout because Today.com is going to a universal layout for all bloggers, but I can at least have my own header. What do you think?

It’s pretty common practice at Design schools to have your work publicly criticized, with varying degrees of accuracy, sincerity and respect. I don’t do that!
