One of those days

Attitudes are flaring this week. Sleep has not been suffice. Patience is running thin. Throwing things at mom and biting has been tried out (what the heck?!). Nerves are on edge. Time outs have been given out like candy.  I felt defeated at points and overwhelmingly frustrated at points. And I know this is just a part of mommyhood. Sometimes being a mom is effortless and fun and sometimes its biting your tongue, breathing deeply, taking every ounce to control yourself hard. On one of those days...

Take an extra 10 minutes to sing in the shower.
Paint your nails.
Make a coffee date even if its just with yourself.
Go for a run.
Sit and watch a tv show instead of doing another load of laundry.
Make a simple dinner.
Have a cup of tea in the middle of the day.
Do your hair a little differently.
Clean something well that you have been putting off.
Read some ecards.
Call a friend.
Do a craft.
Find a new blog to follow.
Put on a outfit that makes you feel pretty.

Do something, anything for you.

Love,
Amy

The two precious boys who have given me a run for my money this week =)
