Three good things...

A couple of weeks ago (or longer) when I was implementing my new bedtime routine, I started asking the girls to tell me three good things that happened to them that day.  I'd ask them individually while tucking them in at night. The last couple of nights they've been asleep before I got home so I didn't get a chance to ask them. Last night Beatrice turned the tables on me and asked ME to tell her three good things that happened to me. Yesterday was tough for me. I thought my sitter wasn't going to show... I had to miss my lunch break out of the office because my sitter was so late.. Millie was having another one of  her breakdowns (several of them I should say) after dance. It was just overall a shitty day I felt.  So it was really hard to think of three good things... I came up with one: dinner didn't suck! I had tried a new recipe.. actually I just made it up from something that I'd had a while ago and it turned out great! I was struggling to come up with the other two things... I was looking at Bea and Millie and then it came to me... Three good things that happened to me yesterday were: 1)Beatrice 2) Camille 3)dinner didn't suck.. Those girls - though they drive me crazy on several occasions will always be my top two good things that happened to me today and everyday.  Maybe it doesn't really count... But they make me smile despite their chaos.
