Attitude of Gratitude + Design Day

Today I'm Grateful For

1. Thick socks on a cold day...
2. KnitPro that helps me to make pictures into knitting charts! What fun.
3. The new followers I have gotten! Yay, finally! Thankyou for following me ♥
4. Creative people who are aware of good design and make really cool things!

Today I have been working on a travel book design for my class to use when we travel to Chicago and NY in June/July.  I'm pretty excited and the more I work on the book the more I get excited. It doesn't quite feel real at the moment! And there is potentially big news that is kinda related ... but I haven't got confirmation on that yet... so we'll wait and see... 

So I thought I would share with you a few sneak peaks of how the design is looking ... and if any of you live in NY or Chicago and have some insiders tips, feel free to share! Would be so awesome and would help me to get even more excited!

• Having money every time we need it. It seems like every time something bad/big comes up we get a new job or get paid for a job. I don't know how it works (well I do actually, I'm pretty sure God's got something to do with). Makes me think of this Bible verse

"Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat of what you will drink...Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you of more value than they?... Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things." Matthew 6:25-34 Abbreviated

• My mum! Mother's Day is coming up and it always makes me realise how amazing a mum I have (my dad is pretty awesome too). I can not even think of a time when my mum was too busy to stop and have a chat, or a time when I didn't feel loved by her. I am soooo blessed to have such a mum! I wish I could actually find a present for Mother's Day that sums up how much I love her.. but I don't think there is one... 

•  Hair. Sounds funny, and it kind of is.. But this week I've been looking at my hair quite a bit as it's the first time in my entire life that I've had short hair. And thinking about it makes me grateful for hair haha because what if I was bald!? Not a good look.

• To Do lists - how could one even survive without ever writing a To Do List?! I have so much on mine at the moment.... which I am not really grateful for. Maybe I will be grateful when all the things are ticked off.

Look out for tomorrows Delightful Dishes post - been cooking up some yummy dishes and can't wait to share!

1. My Husband (Mr Peck) who puts up with my constant craziness and bad moods and loves me no matter what - like today when I wanted him to come to work with me and he couldn't because he had homework to do and I left in a huff. I'm sorry mi amor!
2. Having a bit of regular work so we can have a little bit of extra money.
3. Arms and legs that let me play basketball (even if it's just by myself and really badly ;)
4. A God who loves me no matter what - even when I neglect Him...
5. Family
