There's no denying this week was a tough one. Between a sick kid and daylight savings time I found myself wishing I was teaching again, instead living the glamorous life as a stay-at-home mom.
Every tough situation has a silver lining, and The Great List is my place to reflect and find happiness in the little things.
1. Upon seeing this Christmas tree, Leila squealed with delight. She wanted to climb over that little fence so badly and touch all the sparkly ornaments. Luckily she settled on walking around and around the tree for twenty minutes. Forget respecting the turkey (we eat it anyways)! Bring on more Christmas decorations so I can see Leila's face light up over and over again.
2. While at the mall, a lady stopped me and told me how it warmed her heart to see such an independent little girl. I thanked her and told her she just made my week, since this independent little girl was giving me a run for my money today.
3. Need I say more?
The more you recognize and express gratitude for the things you have, the more things you will have to express gratitude for.
