I'm frustrated with myself for being a negative nelly. These last few days OVERALL have been great! Here's some of my positives:
- work has gone well!
I made my first potpie and it was delish
My dad made us dinner last night and it was even more delish
We had our 1st ECFE class today and it was great fun
Aidan is doing well
Olivia is doing well
My negative?
Olivia has been a bear for naps.
Really I shouldn't complain. Life is good...I am reminded all the time about how crappy life could be. I have been dealt a winner's hand; but it's so easy to get wrapped up in to that one little negative and let it drive your day, week, etc. Right now, Olivia is upstairs napping. She has been SO exhausted the last few days from missing naps, and even today she fought it. I ended up laying with her because she SOOOO needs to just sleep and tonight is Awana so it is always SUPER late.
My mission for the rest of the day is to focus on all the positives in my life! Like the fact that I have these two little buggers who are happy and healthy (albeit tired!)

I just put a saying up in my bathroom that says, " Grant me patience to deal with my blessings" This totally keeps reminding me of my children, and patience is what I need to deal with the wonderful blessings they are.
Oh you are so NOT a debbie downer. But, I can see how you feel like the negatives are dragging you down because I feel like that some days too.
I'm glad that O finally took a nap. I hope she takes one tomorrow too. :)
I wonder why negative names are always associated with women? Negative nelly...debbie downer? From now on it is only male names: crabby christopher, depressed dallas, angry aaron...
