Gratitude Friday is a weekly ritual I started in order to focus on all the small and big positive things that happened during my week. I invite you to join me, you’ll see how much being thankful can change your life. If you want to know more about it, read my introduction post.
Hello !
I know it’s Monday today, but I was not home on Friday but really want to share this post with you all. I hope that if you wrote on your blog a Gratitude Friday, you’d share your link at the end of this so I’ll be able to read and support you.
How was your week ? Are you facing some blocks on your Gratitude road ?
My week was really great. I enjoyed it a lot, despite the fact I was not as productive as I should have been. I focused on having fun. Just to have fun, no pressure.
I am thankful for the 2day trip we had in Seattle. We made a big surprise to our daughters: we went to the Harry Potter’s exhibition. They are both HUGE fans of the movies, the characters, everything related to Harry Potter. It’s because of Harry Potter that my now 5 years old wanted to learn how to read so she’ll be able to read the books by herself, she was 3 1/2 (!!!). They were over the moon, and so are we. We stayed in a great hotel near Seattle, were we meet a family that 1)speaks french 2)lives not far from us in Canada. Weird uh ? I love this kind of coincidence !
I am thankful for the nice people working at Blick in Seattle. They are very helpful and patient. I love going there. If only there were a Blick here *sigh*.
Thank you for the spot I won via Leah at Creative everyday in Mindy’s (from In the wish studio) for her online class “THIS moment“. I was eyeing it.
I’m in love with Laura Izibor‘s sweet and spicy voice. I discovered her in One Tree Hill (yes, I watch this tv show since the first season, not ashamed at all). I’m always thankful for the music that fills my days (and my nights).
My heart is full.

Ah, your weekend sounds wonderful! I’m sure your daughters were thrilled with the surprise 🙂 I love Seattle…I’ve only been there a couple of times but it sure felt like “home” when I was there. Everyone tells me that would change if I was there long enough for all the rains, but what a beautiful city!
Yes they were over the moon and loved it !
You know, here in Vancouver it’s known as “RainCity”, and there is a gentle competition between Seattle and Vancouver to know which one of the cities gets the more rain lol
True, life is hard when it’s not **perfect**. Rough patches completely bowl me over, and occasionally between sobs I have little lucid moments where I’m filled with total contentedness. Weird, but sometimes a little gratitude for the little things is what saves your life.
Yes, today is stupidly dark and wet. Hard to believe it’s even possible to be this dreary! Wow. Though it’s kind of nice to have an excuse to hide indoors all day long. Cat litter can wait, lol.
