I am truly blessed to have a wonderful life. Everyone has their ups and downs and so do I, but I really feel happy throughout the day. I make a point of letting things go and not dwelling on minor details. With that being said, it is hard to do. I occasionally feel blue or worry about things I have no control over, but then I quickly remind myself that I have worked hard and that I really do deserve the best life possible.
I have two wonderful children and at times they can be challenging but I always remember that they are very funny little boys and they make me laugh every day. This weekend we took a trip to Minneapolis and Grampa had given Preston money to spend on something special. So, of course, as we relaxed in our hotel the first night, Preston wanted every toy that he saw on the tv. But when it was actually time to shop he wasn't convinced that anything was worth spending his money on. He kept saying he would just ask Santa or tell Grandpa, Grandma, MorMor or Papa that he wanted these toys for Christmas or his Birthday. It wasn't until we were walking through the bedding department at Target that he finally saw something he could not resisit....'Angry Birds bed sheets'. Well, I nearly fell over laughing that it was not a toy, or a video game, or candy that got my little mans attention; it was bed sheets. Oh my pratical side has already rubbed off on him. He is so excited to show Grandpa what he bought with the money.
Calvin on the other hand is too young to really understand shopping and toys but he sure did have us laughing at everything he does. His newest thing is to belly laugh at everything that Preston does and shake his head no at everyone that will look at him. He is already a smart little guy, at 8 months, he knows to call me 'dada' and then shake his head no until I laugh at him. Then he will say 'mama' and laugh even harder.
These are just two little stories from our wonderful weekend but it is another example of my wonderful life.
