Last week I started a bridging program at Uni, a pathway into a specific course I would like to do in 2014.  The entry process has reminded me of just how accessible education is in Australia.  We are typically free from cultural, religious and political barriers that get in the way of education for others around the world.  
Therefore, for this week and last, I'm sincerely grateful for the chance to learn, build knowledge, opinions and skills in an environment where a holistic approach to education is provided.  

Our first assignment was to write a personal reflection, I'm still considering whether I share this with you all....eek!

This week I am grateful for the opportunity to come back to our humble house and perfect coastline and delight in the company and heartfelt conversation with dear friends...

After a 5:30am start, two cups of cold coffee, copious tears and many irrational thoughts later, I was wondering what I had been thinking when I wrote this post and was finding it very difficult to have a grateful heart.

However, the day has improved with a trip to the seaside, some downtime (thank you afternoon nap) and a few too many pretzels.

I am grateful for the opportunity to be a mum and all that the title entails.

I am grateful that we live near the seaside.

I am oh so grateful that I can be a composed, pensive and caring woman one day and completely fail at it the next.

Last week, I was so busy enjoying my family after our short separation that I forgot to do the grateful post - too busy being grateful I guess...(blurgh!)

So for this week and last, I am grateful for my little family and the non-stop (mostly) joy they bring to my life.  We've had the best reunion.

I am so blessed and forever thankful.

A few friends have started a 'Grateful Project'* on Instagram in 2013. I'm a few weeks late but I thought I would join in here on a weekly basis.

This week, I'm extremely grateful for a generous, sensitive and loving family. I've had to have some treatment which means I cannot see Nora for 10 long days. I'm staying with my parents while Joel cares for Nora.

the lovely surprises that keep arriving...

Here's hoping this project will keep me positive and grateful for my blessed life!
