These little creatures are what I am most thankful for. They're the reason I do what I do. Without them I'd be working some two-bit crap job I hate. I thank the childerbeasts for being born and giving me a reason to stay home, which has led to me quilting and for doing stuff I never thought I'd be able to do.
(this pic is 3 years old - but the cuteness of them playing together melts my cold, hard heart)
And for the furry babies, thank you for testing my quilts and ensuring they are always suitably covered in pet hair. Maybe I'm not so thankful for those particular traits, especially when I have to wash gift quilts a couple of times to be sure they're fluff free.
But in all seriousness, I am so very thankful that these kids can brighten up any day by a simple look. Especially the girly one. She has the ability to make me crumble into fits of giggles with the slightest of eyebrow raises. (The one on the left may as well be mine, she isn't, but she's like my other daughter, and I am as thankful for her as I am the other 'real' kids).
Who are your thank cuteness candidates? This week is dedicated to cuteness over on the Generation Q blog. Go check it out!!!!
Also - in other not connected news. Kirsty (who is friends with my friend, Lu, so she must be nice) is having a giveaway of the newPip Lincolne book. Go over and enter (UK peeps only I think...probably Europe too. You know how these publishing things work, right?

Such a sweet post Katy :o)
Awwww, love it. We don't do formal Thanksgiving but having lived in the US for 5 years before coming home, I do feel rather wistful nostalgia for it. It's a lovely holiday.
I feel the same way about thanksgiving. And I am in OZ. Great pics of all your cuties too.
hehe! great pics of the kids Katy!!
Looks like you have lots to be thankful for!
Your furkids stole the show for me. I just wanted to cuddle them all :)

oh, and lu's comment cracked me up! she is so funny!
I'm so glad I visit you here for cute kids and mildly scandalous comments (thanks Lu). My day wouldn't be complete without it.
I am thankful when the kids' bedtime rolls round mostly x
Sweet post! I truly want to snuggle those two kitties. And Lu's comment? Fabulous.
lovely post Katy ... and I find cute quite a difficult concept ...
I love the whole concept of thanksgiving and that's something we really really don't have here in the UK ...
I hate turkey too.
Thanks for the wonderful post! Your children (both the non and the fur bearing) are precious and beautiful.
Whether you do it or not the Brit way, I am thankful FOR YOU! Have a great day tomorrow and if you want some turkey, come on over!!
