Each Friday, I am hoping to list some things I am thankful for from throughout the week. So continuing for this March final Friday…

• unplanned, loosey goosey weekends
• hanging out with neighbors turned friends (sans kids)
• aunts and uncles who babysit…and do the dishes in the sink as a bonus
• that random turkey breast found in the freezer when Sunday dinner with Great Grandpa gets canceled
• 1:1 time with my youngest while the two bigs are play dating at their friends’ house
• banana bread in the office
• a delicious sandwich
• nights when we get to watch our show uninterrupted
• when appointments cancel and I get an unexpected office day
• donuts in the office
• the sound of my kids giggles
• a new recipe that turns out to be delicious
• a new crochet hook and the ability to splurge on it
• when your book hold arrives just on time
• a finalized schedule
• big revelations
• afternoon chats
• friends who unabashedly say I love you and don’t worry about making it weird
• the start of spring break

I am writing for the 19th annual Slice of Life challenge presented by Two Writing Teachers.
