it helps to stop and remember the little (or big) things we have to be thankful for.
This week, I am thankful for this:
Remember my little story about George?
Well, we decided this was a necessary solution.
He was coming to visit every night at 11:45pm, 2am, and 5:45am.
Those are not my most social hours, and I started to worry that
he would wander about the house or, heaven forbid, outside.
(I've heard of that happening and it freaks me out completely).
He is all about this little contraption, too. It's like sleeping in a fort every night!
And what a blessedly peaceful sleep we've had the last two nights, let me say.
Thankful for that, for sure.
I am also thankful for this recipe.

After all those others I listed, we actually tried these pancakes and they were UH-mazing.

Please make them, they're delicious.
I am thankful for the season of Lent.
Grateful for time to reflect on God's mercy and goodness to us.
Thankful for opportunities to grow over the next six weeks.
I wrote a little post about it over at Lovingly Thrown Together, if you'd like to take a peek.
And finally, I am thankful for you and want to invite you
to a new little link up I want to host here.
I really do feel like we need moments to breathe and remember the good
in the midst of all the hectic craziness of life.
There are blessings and gifts all around us all the time, we just have to have the eyes to see them.
So starting next Thursday, I hope you'll join me for Thankful Thursdays.
Whether it's something grand or tiny, a moment of joy, a happy encounter, a finished project, a nudge from above, a photo - whatever your heart desires, come link up and share your story.

That crib tent is hilarious and amazing! I have a strong suspicion I will end up needing one when my guy ends up getting big enough to crawl out of his crib too!
