Good Things

Boys have been sick around here and that messes with my head.  I’ve been making a “good things” list to help me through (Monday saw 5 disgusting diapers in 30 minutes … believe me, I need to focus on the positive).

The good smell of a 12 week old baby

Fuzzy baby head

Snuggling a 1 year old

Big boys helping each other play trains

Rusty squealing at getting to play with his brothers’ toys (brothers were away)

Tommy’s laugh

Ricky soothing an upset Tommy

Billy crying and wanting Kevin to drive the car to catch up with me because he didn’t get a good-bye kiss

Ricky calling the Harlem Globetrotters “those funny basketball guys”

A clean toy room (it took Ricky and I 40 minutes to clean it)

Ricky is NOT in the 1st/2nd grade split class next year

Billy did his duty on the potty twice

Baby snores

Rusty humming to himself while I drive

Rusty’s smile
