Day 64

1. Finally getting caught up on the laundry (for now at least).

2. Yet another beautiful, beautiful spring day.

3. A stop at the park on our walk home from preschool.

Day 63

1. A small square of really good dark chocolate.

2. A walk through the woods on the way home from school on the most beautiful day we've seen in ages.

3. Feeling like I'm going to sleep really well thanks to all of the physical activity I've had today.

Day 60, 61, & 62

It's hard to believe that a preschool consignment sale could leave me so tired that I didn't even have the energy to come up with happy thoughts for a few days. Here they are, things which have been making me happy this weekend...

1. Spring clothes for the girls.

2. A very successful sale.

3. Working with an amazing group of moms and dads at the preschool for a week.

4. An amazing surprise dinner out at a very nice restaurant with my husband.

5. A beautiful day for a long walk with my 3 favorite kids - stops at Starbucks, CVS, and a birthday party.

6. Packing away lots of winter clothes, it's still cool out, but we can put layers with spring attire.

Day 59

1. A successful start to the spring consignment sale.

2. Hearing a great story about MJ using her imagination at school.

3. M's excitement over losing another front tooth (but it makes me a little sad, too - he's going to look much older with new teeth.)

4. Somehow navigating a very, very busy day.

Day 58

1. An all too rare dinner date with my husband.

2. Seeing the rock-star welcome home the kids gave Granddaddy when he came by after being out of town for 2 weeks.

3. My husband visiting with MJ's friend at 8:00 this morning when the little guy came over for a ride to school with us.

Day 57

1. Big snowflakes that looked beautiful coming down but didn't stick around long enough to cause too many problems.

2. Running into friends at Starbucks.

3. Sneaking in a chapter of Harry Potter with M before dinner. Only 7 chapters left in the last book in the series, I'll be sad when we're done.

Day 56

1. A fairly successful Monday, no unnecessary tears or arguments.

2. A trunkload of kids' things purged from my basement to be sold or donated at the consignment sale.

3. One on one time with each of my kids, even if it was only for 10 minutes.
