I had to walk the last little bit. I didn't get quite enough sleep last night and just felt my body shutting down on the last little bit there. Walked home...kept trying to run but felt it wouldn't be a wise thing for my overall health today. As a busy mom I've learned to think about that and not use all of my gas up on any one thing.
I had a brilliant idea I wanted to share with any other moms out there today. I've always been kind of annoyed with the millions of flowers my kids bring me..annoyed mostly because I really don't know what to do with them and I feel bad breaking their tender little hearts beause I'm not overjoyed at the present. Well...my brilliant idea is to be overjoyed at every little flower they bring me because I'm going to start a pressed flower collection of all these little treasures. I don't know if I'll buy a flower pressing kit in the future but for now I'm just going to use the heaviest book I don't read (I used to do it in this huge book of Pushkin's poetry that I knew I'd never get around to reading) Now I can be delighted every time they bring me a flower that is too small to put in a cup of water for a couple of days...I'll press it and start a wonderful collection of happy childhood memories....beautiful idea...isn't it? |
