As every busy mom knows, just the act of getting a couple kids ready for the day can be un-nerving and energy consuming. Sometimes, just getting the kids to school on time takes incredible patience, timing, and luck!!! Then comes the afternoon when all chaos breaks out as you quickly drop one off to dance, pick the other up from preschool, make a quick stop at Target, get the cupcakes in the oven, pick up from dance, get both off to swimming, darn it... the cupcakes are now burned. Well, you catch my drift. Like I said, every mom has their variation of this routine... so thank goodness for Friday night.
I am careful not to plan activities for any of us on Friday nights. This is important to the "unwinding" of our family. Brandon needs the time to let go of work, the kids get to play their video games, and I get to sit, yes you heard me, SIT on the couch.
So my gratitude for today is simple, TGIF!!! (and semi sweet chocolate chips... but that's a whole other story)
