I think my new motto will be "dont sweat the small stuff". With the only thing constant being change in the Stewart house, my sanity cant afford it and it acutally sets a better example for my three little ones. Here is what I mean...
K decided to help me decorate the front room by hanging his toy story 3 poster on the wall with a tack. Kuddos bc he did it all by himself. -small stuff
Little C no longer wants to wear shoes when she leaves the house even though she has quite the collection of fabulous flip flops- she always rides in the basket anyway- small stuff
Big C wants to "help" me clean the carpet...only bc she gets to use the squirty, foamy carpet cleaner and of course will use the entire can. Carpet cleaner can be replaced and I actually think she may have gotten one stain out... - small stuff.
Little C can and likes to clean her ears after we swim... and her shirt and her nose and mouth and whatever else the bottle will squirt onto. That's one of those moments when I think awww, the silence must mean everyone is getting along, 3...2.....1.... REALITY, let me go check to make sure there isnt an emergency.... small stuff. ... no harm no foul.
Big Pay off- two biggest helped me take the garbage to the street for trash day tomorrow. SCORE, new chore to be added to the list starting NOW! Thank you trash cans with wheels!
