Catching Up

I am getting burnt out from all this posting, I'm sure you are too. Yesterday was one of those days with kids. Just FYI stubborn mom + stubborn child don't mix. There were a couple of times that I just had to put a fake smile on and say "I love you Brody" Dinner could not cook fast enough for my starving 1st grader "you are such a mean mom" tears and all. All because I was cooking potatoes and not rice. After they had a little something they were good as new. Why do kids do this I ask??? They were perfectly normal, then the visiting teachers come and they start bouncing off the walls and wrestling and playing soccer right in the middle of it all!!! Then the second they leave, calm once again. hmmmm. WHY??

Well now I get to catch up on my list.

I am thankful for:

1. Preschool- because Brody loves it. He has so much fun.
2. Mousse and hairspray- My hair would be pretty scary without it.
3. Braiden- who helps me fold clothes and put them away.
4. My piano- it helps me unwind, also "Love One Another" provides excellent background music to wrestling.
5. Visiting teachers who bring an uplifting message, though shouted over noisy children, it was still uplifting.
6. Bed time- need I say more.
