Moments for April 18

Had a overall good day today.  That right there is something to be grateful for.  I have plenty of moments to choose from today, so I'm just gonna name them instead of a big story for each. :)

My youngest Daughter got ready for Kindergarten without much trouble.  A big happy moment for us since she is usually a stinker about it.

Then she gave me a kiss before she got out of the van.  So sweet.

I chose not to watch TV this morning (it always sucks me in and I lose track of time.)

I stuck with my plan to clean the back yard.

The back yard looks AWESOME!

Helped my youngest boil eggs for Easter.

My friend did energy work on my middle daughter, to help her.  So thankful to have such a great friend.

I helped my oldest with her math homework, after a mini therapy session to calm her down about it.  A great moment for me when I could remember how to do and and I actually helped her.  The calculator helped us both too. ;)

My previously mentioned friend gave me a great compliment that gave me warm fuzzies. :)

I got the dishes done before hubby came home.

I didn't get cranky while putting the girls to bed tonight.

I got lots of comments on this new blog, makes me happy. :)

Lots of big accomplishments for me.  It was a good day.

The thing I like about myself today is that I can work hard when needed.  Like cleaning the back yard was a lot of hard work, and slow going with me having to catch my breath.  I like that after working hard, I also take time to take care of myself.  I think other people, especially women, don't take time for themselves.  I try really hard to do this.  So after working so hard on the back yard, I pretty much took the rest of the day off.  I relaxed and put my feet up the whole afternoon.  There were plenty of other chores I could have keep going.  But I chose to take care of me, (and the baby growing inside).  I like that I don't feel guilty for that, but instead it is a priority to help me be the best I can be.
