I am so happy it’s the weekend. This has been a tough tough week for me. I am still feeling dazed, off, frustrated, overwhelmed, tired and stressed. Both my kids start school next week and the new schools, routines, alarms are making me stress even more. But it is what it is.
This is a common scene in my house. David playing with a toy and Nathaniel wanting it immediately.
Nathaniel looking at me as if to say “mommy make him give it to me.”
then the drama.
david looking at me to see if I will cave in into the crying.
me asking David to please sit next to Nathaniel so he can at least watch David.
the little boy finally calming down.
happens several times a day. there’s lots of loud complaining to mommy about how the other one grabbed the toy or is playing with the “favorite” toy. Life with two…
today was also the last of the recent art journaling pages I’ve been working on so I stacked them all up and took photos. It’s nice to see a stack like this:
Today I start a new journal. A slightly different size and medium. I am completely in love with art journaling and so thankful I’ve finally found a way to incorporate it into my day. I hope that with our new schedules it doesn’t go by the wayside. I will have to do it even if I don’t finish a whole page each day.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that I finished two huge todo list items today.
2. I am grateful for a productive day at work.
3. I am grateful that it’s a 3-day weekend. I really need it.
Three Things David’s Grateful For:
