Thankful Thursday

Mum sure is thankful it was Thursday today.  She has got herself 3 days off work in a row - yippee!!  Work was one of those days - busy and often in mums field it gets busier towards the end of the day, so no chance to wind down and take it easy, instead it picks up and you run around more.  So tonight she needed to nap before she could wind down.  Such an old lady.  Still first world problems.

Do you read Humans of New York blog?  Brandon is a photographer that normally takes snap of folks in New York and writes a few little sentences about them giving an interesting insight into their lives.  Lately he has been travelling and the pictures and words about the workers in the brick kilns in Pakistan are humbling.  Families who are born into continual debt, and work and work, and are neglected and even tortured by their employers.  Shocking.

So we are going to bed thinking of just how lucky we are - truly thankful.
