Day 5: What are the 5 things that make you
happiest right now?
My kids,
my kids, my kids, my kids and my kids…oh wait; I can’t use them five times?
1) My
family. All of them, extended
included (on my side). I am so happy
with the way my family interacts now. It
saddens me to have my brother so far away, but I am glad that he has turned a
corner and wants to be a part of our family again. He was “lost” for a few years, but has since
realized that family is an important part of life. We have realized that as much as we would
prefer for him to be closer, it’s better to have a real connection than to have
him “touchable”.
2) Sleep. I really enjoy my sleep. All through my life, I have been a
napper. When I can, I nap. I enjoy curling up with my body pillows,
snuggling with my kids or husband and hunkering down, under my soft
blanket.
3) White
Collar, the television show. I love
this show. It is the only one that I
make my kids go somewhere else while I watch it. Usually, my husband does something in their
room with them, or they watch “Lem” a lot, but they are not allowed to talk
while Mommy is watching Matt Bomer!
4) When
the Middle goes on the toilet. Yep,
it’s potty training time at my house!
The Middle was doing pretty well, until the Little one came. Understandably, the setback occurred. I was prepared for it, but it still bites the
big one. She is getting better over the
last few days. If she keeps this up,
she’ll be potty trained by the end of the month!
5) Not
working at a full-time job. I really
like staying at home with the girls. How
did I go so long working? I know; I
trusted my husband to while I worked out of the home. Don’t get me wrong, he did very well, but he
cannot compare to me. Not that I am
doing a better job, but we do a lot more than they did before. I think we are going to start weekly trips
to the zoo before the Big one starts Kindergarten. The littler two and I may continue while the
big one is at school, but shhhhhh, don’t tell her!
