I would just like to put out to the universe today that I like my life.
At breakfast Cori read to us about who our Heavenly Father is and how He asks us to live so that He can bless us.
Today we are learning to sing "Keep the Commandments".
Havah is trying to convince me that elmo underwear are a whole outfit.
Lilly is coloring but keeps asking for a 'soooo' (show).
There is laundry waiting to be folded on the couch, but the dishwasher is running.
The floors are dirty but all the closed doors in my kitchen are hiding perfectly clean and organized shelves (even my freezer!)
The upstairs bathrooms are disgusting, but yesterday Havah learned how to clean a toilet and the kitchen bathroom is sparkling.
My girls are watching Peter Pan again, but the play room is clean (relatively).
There are things I'm not good at and things I'm really good at... and this year I feel ready to move some things from the 'not so good at' pile to the 'good at' pile.

The last few days Cori and I have set some goals for this year, and I feel undaunted by them. They are attainable. Big but doable, and this morning, I'm ready to begin.
Because what better way to thank Heavenly Father for a good life then to be trying to become something better.

I couldn't agree more! Our Lily is watching Peter Pan at this very moment too!!
ReplyDeleteSo, I can't remember if I've already left this as a comment or not (so forgive me if I have!) but I notice you say you like trying out new organizational plans, and I wonder if you've heard of FlyLady? The website is flylady.net and it's got not only a lot of really good tips, but a whole little program of keeping clean and organized that seems great. I've only tinkered with it but I know someone who swears by it. Just fyi. Love this post, by the way. Glad you are well. :)
