wow...it's 4:25 AM. I FINALLY BLOGGED AND THEN LOST MY ENTIRE ENTRY. So for now... I guess I will redo it tomorrow. I am up working on two projects for magazine publications. They have to go POSTAL tomorrow. I spent today at Hogle Zoo with my kids- my priority. Unfortunately, it means pulling a late night. I am so blessed- wow...just thankful for every day that I have to be a mom. They are my REASON and bring me so much JOY. I was with my friend today and her two little ones got into a HUGE fight. I was watching her, and her patience. I was so impressed. I asked her if she ever "lost it" and I could tell it would be RARE if she did. I told her (she has five children too) that I had the same struggles with my kids at times. When I was tired, or growing impatient- I would simply think- I am the luckiest person to be GIVEN these WONDERFUL children to raise. I am thankful for...and count my blessings- it would keep me from getting so upset.
I needed the reminder today- of what is MOST important. Time with my children--So thankful...
Back to work...more later!!!!!
