I was having a rough day on Thursday. I find that being pregnant is just hard on me. I can't keep my mood up as much as I would like. I'm tired, I'm ornery and I'm trying to accept that its okay, I can be those things and still choose joy. It's a work in progress. We had lots of recess time though because I needed to sit on the couch and just decompress for a while (about 10 times).... The girls made forts on the stairs, read books with me and played outside. I tried to appreciate the fact that even though we didn't quite get everything done that I wanted to that day, and the house was a mess, it was still a good day. My girls played well together, they learned, the loved, and it's okay to have an off day. Or week, or month, and sometimes even an off year. It's okay.
The sun finally came out and so I told the girls to run outside and enjoy it. Well they all thought that the sun meant it was warm and Nora ran out in her leotard and swimsuit bottom. I told her to get a jacket, but she assured me she was not cold and the sun would keep her warm (that lasted about 10 minutes). They ended up playing out there for a couple hours though and I feel that it's always a good day if they can spend time outside. Also check out that view, we are so incredibly blessed to live here!
