Well like most things in my life that are deemed not important, I am behind. I always have good intentions, but then life happens. Most of that life is making sure that my children are nice to each other (aka not killing each other)
Day 4 - Sleep
For some reason, someone who doesn't have kids said "Let's do daylight savings. In the fall we will go backward which means everyone can sleep in one hour!" It was great as a college student. However, as a parent, I don't do daylight savings at all. All three of my kids were up at five, laughing. Thankfully, I am a morning person, but still five is a little too early. I do treasure my sleep. The best thing though is that we were all asleep by 7:30 pm. Lately I have been going to sleep at about eight because I am up at 4:30 am for my job with VIPKid.
Day 5 - My body
I may not like my body somedays, but I am grateful for it. I am grateful for every heartbeat. I am grateful for all my scars. My body is amazing. I have to admit that for awhile when Justin and I were first married, I felt like my body was broken because I couldn't get pregnant. It took me long to time to grieve for my infertility because the only thing I ever wanted to be was a mom. My body wasn't working the right way and there was nothing I could do to help it. I finally realized that I can get help and that I am not alone. With my body, I can play tag with my children. I can tickle my kids to make them laugh and I can snuggle my three precious miracles all because of my body.
Stay tuned for the rest, I promise that is coming.
