Good Morning. Today is just a quick post- linking in with Planet Penny and her Reasons To Be Cheerful, which I think is a fine start to the day.
Without further ado, the things I have to be grateful for today are:
I found these bad boys in a charity shop, and just looking at them makes me smile
I read about ways to propagate rosemary and mint by just cutting them, dipping in honey, and popping them in water- who knew???? Also along the way discovering a use for all those favourite but broken or chipped cups!! And saving me lots of money, because I do love me a big herb garden, with lots of sweet smelling things.
And lastly, and most importantly, my lovely son turns 18 today. He is my first-born, and I love him dearly, and cannot wait for him to wake up now!
I hope you all have reasons to be cheerful, don't forget to either join in, or just check out other peoples reasons to be cheerful.
P.S. There is no Part 3, I just like the song!
Happy Birthday to your lovely son! Doesn't the time fly! They will always be our babies ;) x
ReplyDeleteAh bless him. 18!!!!! My daughter is 8 next week and I can't believe how fast the years go. Enjoy him, go wake him up. He won't thank you for it though!!!!!!

Happy Birthday, big boy!! How are you doing with that, mama? I bet it's bittersweet. Hugs! I am sure he's a wonderful boy! I'll bet you've raised him wonderfully!
ReplyDeleteThere are many many things to be grateful for!
A birthday! Now that is a reason to be cheerful! Thanks so much for joining in and spreading a little happiness. (And if you like the song, did you see I put it on my initial Reasons to be Cheerful post?)
ReplyDeleteWho knew indeed? I am going to try that.......I love your little miss cup!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your big boy, hope you have a truly wonderful day and an even cheerier week!
Wow that's a great tip about propagating herbs, thanks for sharing. Love all your little ceramic figurines, I am always on the look out for a bambi or fawn, my absolute favourite xox

I love those ceramic figurines!!uber cute!!A very happy birthday to your son!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wonderful herb tip! I have a treasured, gnarled rosemary plant about 14 years old that I grew from seed - and would love to propagate it.
ReplyDeleteLove the "bad boys". A very happy birthday to your son.
Happy Birthday to your son, but time flies so fast. Don't you wish you could shrink them back to the age of 5 just for a day?
ReplyDeleteHugs to you,
Meredith
Oh, I just love your 'bad boys' from the charity shop! I have a similar collection and must post about them one day- I keep telling the mister that they're for our daughter's room, but she's too small to have them yet, so they're keeping warm on the mantlepiece! (he's buying it anyway) !!
