Grateful

Blessings this morning:

*crisp mornings

*fuzzy socks

*being organized

*the laundry being caught up (even if it is only for a day, or an hour...)

*children who decide to sleep late

*a few moments to myself before the day really begins

*happiness

I have to put the things that I am grateful for before I put what I am  not.  It seems like the right thing to do.

Not a blessing:

*t.v.  (The source of so many arguments between myself and a certain 5 year old.  Anybody have this mastered???  He can lose his mind over it and I feel like the battle is so redundant and yet, necessary.  I do not want him to value that time over time spent using his imagination and being active.  I feel like I have tried everything... So. Frustrated.)

*garage sale preparation (ugh.  Just ugh.  I hate going through all the boxes of "stuff".  It will be worth it, right?!?)

That's all I guess.  So the good outweighs the bad.  That is a blessing, too.

Also, thankful for these goons...




Love & Laughter,
abby
