So, I didn't quite make it to blogging last night. I don't remember what I did, but apparently it was not blog. I'm sure everyone missed me! :)
Today I am thankful for
...Trader Joe's Candy Cane Joe Joe's. They are a most delicious treat that I discovered a few years ago when I was dairy- and corn-free. Can we just say, yummo?? I hate to even mention these because they disappear so quickly from the store shelves and are only available this time of year, and I don't want anyone to steal my potential boxes. I'm selfish like that. However, I must say that eating two of these (I have to save them, after all!) has made my day lovely.
...the boys playing quietly for awhile as I got some things done around the house. It's always wonderful when I do not need to mediate any quarrels or send any boys to time-out...or worse. Lately, they have liked to play "Bobos," who are the monkeys in "Diego." This mostly involves them stripping down to their underwear and jumping around on the furniture--what could be better as five- and three-year-old boys? Today their game was "hibernating." How perfect is that on a rainy day? I didn't even come up with it! They put their blankets on the propped-up couch cushions to make homes and sat quietly inside. (They were inside their homes when I took this picture.)
...an inspirational youtube video that I watched last night. As I ran on the treadmill today I thought of this man's weight loss/running journey. It is always good to see people who inspire you to be better.
...my kids' love of swimming. They've been doing great in swimming lessons, and I am so thankful for their awesome teachers! Grant and Jack are both jumping off the block and smiling the entire half-hour. Yay!
