Small Successes

You may have noticed that the last two weeks postings were missing my three Small Successes. Thankfully this was not because the weeks did not include successes, but rather, the successes did not include blogging.

For this week though, I am proud to claim the successes of...

1. On the night my dear husband had to leave us in pursuit of our daily bread, I managed to have all four children fed, bathed and bedded by 8:00, with a clean kitchen and a smile on their faces (despite my having skipped dinner and resembling more a hurricane survivor than a mom.)

2. To celebrate the Feast of the Annunciation, the children and I made cream puffs for dessert. We were very proud of the effort, not so much the dessert.

3. I paid homage to the ironing board on Tuesday for two and a half hours, and for my efforts, was rewarded with ALL of the ironing being finished! As of Tuesday, at least.
