it's been a long day.... I wish I had time to do things that I WANT to do, but with a two year old and a newborn, I am barely surviving around here. We had a little party for Simon tonight. We made pizza and he was super jived about the presents he opened from the dollar store. We sang happy birthday and he blew out his big 2 candle on his Elmo cake. when the lights came on after the song, I kind of felt like crying. Don't get me wrong, I am so grateful for our family and I just adore my little 2 year old........ but I am so.darn.tired! Dishes were everywhere and the boys were hyper on sugar and I just wanted to push the mute button. where is a magic wand that will make your house spotless when you need it?

Instead of crying, I stood up to load the dishes in the dishwasher. my husband followed me to the sink, turned me around, gave me a big hug and said two things. 1st: "You're doing a great job." and second, "This day is almost over." Then he announced that the girls have to go upstairs and cuddle in bed and the boys have to clean up the kitchen.

i love my life... but mostly because I married the right guy.

Please let me come over and be the fairy godmother for a moment. I would love that. If I get to come, put me to work!
