Happy Friday! It was a whirlwind of a week, but now it's the start of winter break! The weekend is here, and it's time for another happy and grateful list.
1. Pushkin the Christmas Gnome by Brad Montague was such a sweet short story.
2. It's been a joy crossing off things on my holiday list. I'm so close to finishing everything I need to do for the holidays. This week was such a whirlwind. It's going to be so nice to cross the final thing on my list.
3. We went to Raphael's class holiday party and had a great time. We played games and made a few arts-and-crafts projects. Raphael decorated a pine cone, and it turned out really cute. He even added some tiny ornaments.
4. I tried a cookies and cream hot chocolate from Starbucks (don't judge me, please) and it was actually pretty good. If you want to order one, just ask for four pumps of white mocha sauce and cookie crumble topping.
5. A song on repeat: Which Witch by Florence + the Machine
6. Currently reading (and absolutely loving): See One, Do One, Teach One by Grace Farris.
7. We celebrated Gabriel's birthday and had a good time. Even though his birthday was in the middle of the week, we still did our traditional birthday rituals. We were planning to celebrate more over the weekend, but unfortunately, Gabriel has the flu. Thankfully, today is the last day of school before we officially start winter break, so he'll be resting at home. Overall, he's doing fine, and I'm so grateful for that.
9. Super random: My esthetician and I had such a great conversation during my appointment. The conversation left me feeling deeply inspired, and it was also great to hear someone else's perspective on life.
10. Winter break has officially started, and I'm so excited!
What made you happy this week?
Thanks for visiting!
Until next time...
