We are working on enjoying the little things in life. Thad had several weekdays off this week. On those days off we had 5 Dr appointments between us all. So instead of grumbling about it we tried to make the best of it. 2 appointments were in Hood River so Thad said "let's go golfing with the kids" It was way cheep this time of year with the threat of snow still lurking so we went after the Dr appointments. We had a great time and the kids loved trying to hit the ball and ride in the cart. I think the older men on the course thought we were nuts with the 2 kids but everyone was laughing in the end. I'm not a golfer but even I got 1 shot over the water on the 1st try and one long straight tee shot out of 9. We all enjoyed it. Other little things we did that made us smile:
1) had the kids use a bucket and hand pick all of the "little pretty flowers" (dandelions) out of the yard.
2) Took pictures of the kids down stairs in moms make shift "studio"
3) Everyday chores of weeding and "spring cleaning" while the kids made a lake in the sand box in the backyard one day and enjoyed blowing bubbles and just being silly another day.
So here's to enjoying/celebrating the little things in life. -Becky
