Just roll with the punches, just keep breathing, count your blessings... They are all very good, and I say them to myself and to others. I really do believe it...most of the time. However, occasionally a day comes along when you don't want to hear it (of course that is when you need to hear it the most). I just had one of those days. The Daddy blew the turbo in the semi and had to replace it NOW...on the side of the road...two hours from home! Lots of time and money later, he is on the road again. Of course, he knew it was going to have to be replaced soon. We were just hoping for a couple more months. Oh...and the tires that will need to be replaced soon...blew one of those too! He is safe and the truck is repaired, so I guess I am getting better at just getting to the instructions in the first sentence after all.
B is on the mend, although easily wiped out. She went back to school Monday, and it was a bit draining on her. Baby steps...as long as she keeps improving...see the first sentence again. Oh...and all that schoolwork she needs to make up...like trying to stay dry in the pouring rain!
A is doing well...just gets a bit annoyed by her dear siblings...alot the last few days. As she gets older, though, she seems to be better at turning it around. So very happy for that. D is being his silly little self...which helps to keep everyone smiling...most of the time. The exceptions being - helping himself to his sisters belongings, finding any chocolate in the house and devouring it before he is noticed, and shaking a can of soda and asking the Mommy to open it. Of course, the Mommy should have known better than to just open it! And C, he is at the difficult age of four...you know, where he is an authority on just about everything, and is the boss of everyone...! Now that I say that, they don't completely outgrow that, do they?
I needed to run errands today...post office...store returns...last minute Halloween school party items...pick up essentials, like diapers for D...I guess there is always tomorrow! Again, see the first sentence.
Isn't amazing though, that we usually end up accomplishing at least the required items on our list and making it work if we don't. Isn't that just what Mommies do?!
In trying to remain positive, at least this is all I am worrying about. I guess it is all relative. More on that on another day.
Have a great rest of the day...I know I am going too...somehow...I will...really!
