January 4, 2010

I won't have any problem going through what I'm grateful for today! Today was a pleasant day and quite easy to swing through. Tom did marvelously helping me with Ellie today. I was cleaning like a madman for the better half of the day and he just played with Ellie to keep her occupied. There were moments when I would step in, but what momma doesn't want to spend time with her baby? He also took out all of the trash (and there was an annoying amount of it) without me even mentioning to take it out for me. It always makes me feel good when he helps out with little chores around the house. There is so little to do that doesn't fall under the "mommy" hat, it's nice to see him try.

Also, tonight we went to a friend's home for dinner. Her two children played marvelously with Ellie and I couldn't have asked for a more relaxing evening with friends. I could see Ellie taking to Katie much in the same way that she took to Addyson. She misses Addyson terribly, but I may have found a temporary replacement for between visits.

I'm learning to appreciate the days that seem so ordinary. They are much better and easier to get through that days that are constantly eventful. I am definitely tired today. I spent time cleaning, which always makes me feel better. I spent time with my husband and munchkin. I spent time with friends. What more could you ask you?

Today is done, tomorrow is another one. Enjoy every smile that crosses your path, even if you don't think it was sincere. At least the effort was made.

Good night.
