A Month of Gratitude 2024: Day 4

Hello There. I hope you had a good day today. Mine was manic, to put it politely. Despite this, it did yield a few moments that made me stop and think of the things I need to be grateful for.

Two Things I Am Grateful For

  1. My son came to work with me today. I love it when he does that. It reminds me of when I was pregnant and he went everywhere with me. He hates it now because it is terribly boring for him as a he is a teen but it doesn’t stop me from loving it 😊.
  2. My son has virtually grown up at our office. As a single mum, I have been extremely blessed to take him to work with me whenever I need to over the years. My colleagues would take turns entertaining him while I worked. I will always be grateful to my managers and colleagues for the support they have given me over the years. They have helped me make single parenthood look easy.

One Source of Joy

I love the Zen garden at our office. It is a very peaceful place even though it is close to a freeway. As I mentioned before, today was manic, but amid all the chaos, I could share a moment of peace with my son in the Zen garden. For a moment, it was just us, the trees and the chirping birds, who went about their business. And of course…coffee!

Our little piece of heaven at work

That’s it from me today. Share your moments of gratitude or joy in the comments. I would love to hear from you.

Bye for now!

  1. One day your son will grow up and have fond memories of these visits. I know I mad a fuss about joining my parents at work, but now looking back they were fun.
