Strawberries & Sunshine

This week I'm grateful for.............



Little Miss Tornado Two has had a rough week. Temperatures, Runny nose, A nasty cough, Whinging, Whining and the yuckiest poos I have ever,ever seen.

She hasn't eaten properly in days. She has barely had the energy to play. As much as I complain about her vivacious and sparky nature, I really missed her usual exuberance.

This morning, however, she's back. Cheeky, naughty, funny. This morning she sat in the sunshine and had the first real thing to eat in days........strawberries. Sweet, juicy, yummy (expensive) strawberries. I rejoiced.

So today I'm grateful for Strawberries & Sunshine.......if only those explosion poos would stop I could write a post about that too.

  2. @ trudi- It's that time of year isn't it? Every year Winter approaches and I hope and pray we will get thorugh unscathed, but with four children it's practically impossible!

  8. Hi Lene! She's so cute. I guess if you think about being 'grateful' for the 'explosive' nappies, the alternative isn't so nice. My little boy, when he was 2 was always suffering from constipation, which wasn't very nice. I would've done anything for a loose bowel for him!

    Both of my kids are craving strawberries at the moment but we're waiting a couple of weeks. The guy at the fruit shop around the corner said they were over $9 a punnet at the Rocklea markets the other day. That's ridiculous!

    Hope you're having a lovely weekend!

  9. everyone seems to have runny noses, coughs etc. glad your little one is starting to feel better! Always nicer to have them in cheeky mode, rather than sick :)

  11. @ Caz- I also think fresh is always the best when illness is around! I love fresh fruit when I'm unwell and also chicken soup....so nourishing! No wonder Miss 2 was craving yummy fresh strawberries!
    @ Daisy, Roo & Two - I love the pigtails too! She has only just started to let me do her hair and I just love it!
    @ Jacqui- She's definitely squeezable! Especially when she's back in cheeky/naughty mode! I hope your little man is on the mend too.
    @ Maxabella - Her first content day in a week or so, thank goodness! Thanks for stopping by!
    @ Kamana - Thanks! xx
    @ Anne - Hi! Thank goodness that today she is actually doing (nearly) normal ones. A strange thing to be thankful for the clearing up of explosion poo's but they were really horrific!

    I couldn't believe the price of strawberries either, but I was desperate for her to eat something good so I paid up!

    @ Cathy- She is so much nicer in cheeky mode, rather than clingy and crying. Now the older children have all started with the runny noses so I guess it's just the beginning.
    @ kasiabear - The yucky poos really topped off my week! I really appreciate her being back in her usual two year old terrors...I don't know how long it will last for though!
    Thanks for visiting!
