Enjoying the Day to Day

This is something that I have really been working hard on over the past couple of months!! With Olivia's "phase" (lots of crying, crabbies, bossies, drama, not napping etc...), 2 surgeries for 2 kids, the busyness of preschool/work/church/volunteering etc, I have found myself teetering on the edge of falling into THE TRAP. THE TRAP that I tend to fall into when things are crazy of feeling tired, overwhelmed, and crabby. I let the little things bug me and fall behind in everything. I am not happy when I fall into THE TRAP.

So, this year I've made a decision. It isn't going to happen. We've been busy, it's true. But do you know what? I've cleaned more, organized more, cooked more, played with kids more, and ENJOYED more than many other times!! And I'm SOOO much happier! These day to day activities are making me feel so productive and worthwhile.

What do you do when you try to enjoy the day to day?
