I love that!

Good news! You're not going to have to put up with any of my whining today because I'm in a much better mood. I figured I'd better "turn that frown upside down" or else you'd go read someone else's blog and blow me off altogether. No need for that, 'cause I'm wearing a smile.

Nothing really extraordinary happened today to make me so happy, but I did experience some very nice moments that made for a great day. First of all, I had a good night's sleep, which will do wonders for one's disposition, wouldn't you agree? I love that!

I had lots of things on my "to do" list and I managed to complete them all, which is quite rare for me these days. I'm feeling a sense of accomplishment, and that's a good thing, right? I love that!

I had a talk with my son's teacher and his vice-principal today and both were very gracious and forgiving of yesterday's incident. I needed to talk with them and walked away feeling so much better about the situation. I love that!

My husband was able to come home early today and take one son to baseball practice while I stayed home with the other one to tend to homework. It was so nice being able to concentrate on only one kid instead of having to be two places at once. I love that!

While my son was doing his homework and I was busy in the kitchen, our landlady stopped by to pick up a piece of mail that belonged to the owners of the home we're renting and she surprised me with a huge bouquet of hot pink roses. I asked her what on earth the flowers were for, and she said it was because I was always so accommodating (I am?). I love that!

A couple of neighbor kids came inside to take a look at my older son's pet fish, and when they were heading upstairs, I heard one of them say that our house was nice and that it smelled good. I was baking chocolate chip cookies at the time. It gave me such a warm feeling, knowing that kids, who we think never really take notice of anything, actually complimented my son on our home. I love that!

My husband, being the cookie lover that he is, kept stealing cookies tonight when he knows I'm making them for a family reunion this weekend. He just flashed his big mischievous grin and said they were really good and we could run to the store to buy some if we didn't have enough for the reunion. Awwww... He loves my cookies! I love that!
