The other day I heard something on KLOVE that stuck with me about when you want to complain about your day at work, you think about the people who are out of work or if you are about to whine about having a bad hair day, you think about people undergoing chemo and basically you turn your negativity around. This morning I was practicing that while picking up dog poop in the house, cleaning up dog puke and finding cat puke on my comforter. All before 6:30 a.m.
Today just flowed really well - Steve and I have a system that works with what time we each get up, he goes off to work and I get ready for the day, get Shane up and going for sports camp, take care of the Baby, get Shelby up and ready and depending on Baby's nap schedule for the day, we do our earlier than usual visit to my Grandma's. Today we ate brunch, played scrabble and hung out with the Baby. We got home before Shane returned from camp and I fixed my famished boy a jumbo sized lunch.
This afternoon was meltdown free - it was fantastic!! We spent some time outside and the Baby loved it. Shane humored Shelby and played tag - it's kinda hard to play when one person's in a wheelchair - similar to when she wants to play hide and seek...there's only so many places she can "hide"...anyways, I made an early dinner, left the 3 kids w/Steve while I met Tammy at a parenting class then returned home to give Baby a bath and get him set for bed.
The rest of us watched Olympic trials and America's Got Talent again - well, I did while reading Karen Kingsbury's latest on my Kindle :)
