taking care of lots of grown-up stuff (one of my least favorite things to do) and feeling not as accomplished as i'd have liked to as we near lunch-time, i've decided to take a step back, breathe, and take notice of some things i am really and truly grateful for.
my current list of little blessings:
- i've probably said this before, but i am grateful that all of my children love oatmeal
- i am proud of myself for embodying discipline and self-control as i take charge of my health
- i love that my youngest boys share a beautiful room, finally sleep in their own beds, but creep into mine at some point so that i still get to wake up every morning to kisses from sprout and cuddles from pea
- i am thankful that the counseling place i've been waiting on called me back yesterday. as much as i'd love to not work outside of the home, aside from personal assistant gigs, i can definitely use the extra income and see this as a wonderful blessing that couldn't have come at a better time
- i love my house and my family and wouldn't change a thing at the current moment
- i get to spend time with one of my favoritest friends and her adorable children later today
Its always wonderful to feel grateful even when things are crap, somehow it helps put things into perspective. XO
