"Endurance is one of the most difficult disciplines, but . . .

. . . it is to the one who endures that the final victory comes.” -Buddha
I'm thankful for:

1. finding I can eat Peeps!
   
2. a relatively pleasant (minimal fighting) trip to the grocery store
   
3. having a good mommy day - which means not losing my mind amidst hitting, yelling, backtalking and such
   
4. playing Hi-Ho Cherry-O, the ladybug game and Thomas Tic-Tac-Toe
   
5. a place for the kids to play outside
   
6. a productive day
   
7. focusing on treating each other as we'd wish to be treated
   
8. making it through "the witching hour" without losing it
   
9. a good start to a week without relief
   
10. bedtime for little monkeys
