Weekly Gratitude

When I saw Tatiana's Weekly Gratitude posts over at Love, Life, Lace, I knew I had to get in on this. It's so easy to lose track of all the good things in life and focus on the things you don't have.

So here is what I'm grateful for in my life right now.

Thank you to my husband, of course. He has been really patient with me these past six months while I got used to living in London. He wiped my tears, hugged me when I felt homesick, and spoiled me rotten. I am so thankful to have such a wonderful husband.

Thank you to my new job, even if it's far from my ideal job. It gives me something to do every day, and although I didn't like it at first, I am slowly learning to enjoy it.

Thank you, London, for the ability to travel around Europe so easily from you. In the three weeks, we've been to Paris and Berlin. And before we could get our suitcases unpacked, we planned a trip to Amsterdam! I think I have definitely caught the travel bug.

Thank you, little signs of spring! The grass seems greener, daffodils are beginning to bloom, and trees are sprouting little flowers. Even if it was bitterly cold this week, I can feel that spring is around the corner (at least I hope it's around the corner!).

Thank you, Covent Garden, for being such a charming little area of London. I went for my haircut in a cute little salon there, and ended up having a lovely afternoon walking around the area. It's places like CG that make me like living in London just a little more.
