Good things + Small bad = chaos??

How can it be that one bad thing can overshadow the good things of the day?

Lord help not dwell on the tantrum in the back of the car on the way home from great family time and focus on the great things that happened today. Wipe my mind clear and help me handle the grumpy things with more grace. Amen

Spider!!!!!

Today my daughters and I battled a spider... Rylee cried, hay held perfectly still.. and I screamed and slapped my face and rubbed my hands everywhere until I knew the spider was gone... then it jumped to haylee... ry, very bravely said "MOM! its on haylee!!!" When it jumped off of haylee I squished it!

I am SO proud of us!!!!

By the way.. .it was between a nickle and a quarter size..

Snakes!

Last night at Petsmart, my girls got to play with their first ball python! hay was all over it! Ry, well.. she just liked stroking it ;) Either way I'm stoked and proud!
