Happies for today

Today several things have just made me happy.
I love taking time to notice them sometimes.
I need to write them down more often.

- My first big happy is just huge for our family! We all ate the same meal for dinner, and I'm not talking about PB&J! We've been taking steps to go in this direction which is particularly difficult when you have a child who eats a total of five items! (This parenting adjustment deserves a post of it's own.) BUUUUTTTT tonight we all ate the same meal! THE smallest thing, but huge for us!

- I bought myself a new pillow today. Happy! I've had my Eddie Bauer down pillow since, oh, maybe 1999 or 2000. Yes, it's time! I've loved it for so long, but there is just no fluff left! I'm excited to try the new guy.

- I get to buy a new area rug! I'm thrilled about this! Again, since the redecorating of the living room I've desired this. I thought I'd have to wait for a very long time. Matt gave me the go ahead yesterday. The hunt is on!

- I love Peeps, Robin Eggs and Cadbury Cream Eggs. They make me happy!

- I've been cleaning out and organizing my craft room. Being organized makes me happy. I can almost see the top of my desk again!

- I had time to myself while Q was at school, G was at his friend's, and O was sleeping. Sigggghhhhh.

- The kids responding so well to the new format of jobs makes me happy. It's nice to have my kids helping out so much. They really are big enough to. I don't know why we've waited so long!

- Feeling baby makes me so happy. I don't think I'm ready for that to be over. I always miss it when it's gone.

- Tomorrow is Friday!

- And, Matt is getting the kids showered tonight. Such a treat! That makes me happy!
