A Good Day

Usually I end the day looking at my list of to-do's and realize that I only accomplished half and felt that the day went too fast. I usually am frustrated that I didn't do all I set out to do. But today I feel happy! No I didn't get the to-do list marked off, I think maybe only one out of the eleven got done. I did not clean the bathrooms, nor vacuum the floor.

Today I played with my kids. First came breakfast and scripture time as usual. Then as I started exercising it turned into a game of tag as the three of us chased each other around the house. As it continued to POUR outside, we decided on doing story time, to read all the fun books we just picked up from the library yesturday, that the kids were dying to read. Next, silly songs and dancing. Then lunch and after, making a turttle for our letter T. Then drawing random pictures. Next puzzles as I read Charlotte's Web. Then playing Wii together. Ending with Georgious falling asleep in the chair as Handsome continues playing as I prepare dinner. Today I played with the kids and feel very satisfied not regreting a thing on my list that didn't get done.

I guess a very structured, task oriented person like me, just needed a day like this to realize that what really matters is the people, not the tasks. :)

I'm sure you guys already knew this, but I thought I would share my joy in the day with you. :)
