WOW! I cannot believe I am down to just ten days until my Happy Challenge is over! It is truly amazing that I have been able to find happy moments each day. It is funny that I wrote that last sentence because today truly was a happy CHALLENGE. So much went wrong today. It was just one of those really bad crazy mommy days! But, at the end of the day, there were happy moments to be found!
The kids and I did not get out too much today. Work was good and I enjoyed each one of the children I worked with. I love it when the 2 yr olds I work with giggle. Nothing brings me more joy than to have them laughing and happy and talking!
After work, I went by TOGO'S and got dinner for us. The boys and David were already at one of the pools in our ward with some members of our congregation and their families. It was a really fun time to swim and talk. Connor and Joel had SO much fun and were so happy. That made coming back to my family after work so nice! After swimming, we ate dinner and got to know the people in our ward better. I think I have said before that we don't do much with members of our ward and this was SO wonderful to be invited and hang out! The boys had so much fun and it was hours and hours of happy moments!
Finally it was time to leave and get the kids to bed. It was a great way to end a crazy day! I have officially given up trying to get Connor to poop in the potty. It has to be his choice. He CAN do it, he just does NOT want to, and my couch keeps suffering for it! At some point in the future I hope to be able to LOL about all of that, but until that someday comes, I am thankful for the lessons I learned on patience and being able to say I made it through today and tomorrow will come!
