Fluffybutt’s Thankful Thursday

July 19, 2012 by OneMommy

Well, it must just be my week to guest post!  (Did you catch my earlier one?)

Today I am guest posting over at the wonderful natural parenting site of I Thought I Knew Mama.  Please take a moment and head her way to read my post:  To Sleep or Not to Sleep (a post about how my co-sleeping thoughts changed with our second child).

***

Woof!

I mean, hi.  Every Thursday around here there’s a little thing called Thankful Thursday.

Well, this week I lucked out.  Just when my caretaker was about to start typing her post, the kids started squalling.  I finally get my chance to share my point of view.

Want to know what I’m thankful for?

  • Air conditioning!  I mean, I am partly Siberian Husky after all.  Summer can be brutal, especially this year with so many days with temps over 90.
  • My new squeak toy.  Yeah, I chewed it up in 10 minutes tops, but listening to that beautiful sound with each bite?  That was priceless.
  • Messy kids.  Every day when they eat lunch, I know I’m going to get at least one juicy morsel.
  • Laundry day.  She just matched up socks and lucky me, one of them had a big hole in it, which means it’s tug-of-war time!
  • Oh, and cat food.  I could do without the furball in the garage.  But I have to say, her food is yum, yum, yummy!

Now you know what I’m thankful for this week.  Be a dear and toss me a couple puppy cookies and leave a comment letting my caretaker know what you’re thankful for — she loves comments even more than I like puppy cookies!

Or, if you have your own Thankful Thursday post, link it up!  Woof!

      It has been a super hot summer, I think. I’m not sure how people without A/C make it!

      I’ll pass on your greetings to the furry one! 🙂

    Ha! I’m quite certain that my dog would have a similar post. Especially about how many treats he gets from the kids at the kitchen table!

    Visiting from SITS 🙂

    Making a sharefest visit from SITS. I just finished exploring your website. I love your simple to make kid crafts. When my granddaughter is old enough, we will try some. I think she’s old enough for the ice boats.

    We have some fluffybutts, too. One is eighteen and the other is fifteen and a half. At their age, they love the heat more than the air conditioning. Unfortunately, it’s been raining and I haven’t been able to take them outside.

    Enjoy your day.

    As a math teacher I loved your spam protection!

      First, thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you get to enjoy lots and lots of crafts with your granddaughter in the future. I know my little girl LOVES craft time!

      Your dogs are 15 and 18? Oh, I so hope ours gets to be that age! Got to love our dog! 🙂

      Off to visit your site!

    You are one smart dog, I must say! Since we’re on the subject, I’m thankful for my 3 dogs and all the love they so willingly give me.

      Dogs give their whole hearts – don’t they? 🙂

    SITS visit! This is so cute! I’m thankful for my hubby, kids and fur babies. With them I truly have a fulfilling, albeit sometimes crazy, life. Can’t wait to check out more on your site!
