Kalei has been sick today. I have to say that having an unwell baby is one of the hardest things, especially without anyone to help out! I haven't got ANYTHING done today, even though I was going to do a lot of house work. It really needs doing, too. Now Granny has Kalei, but all I feel like doing is vegging because I'm so drained of all energy. Having a grumpy baby is terribly hard, I don't know how some mothers deal with it all night, I'm so blessed to have a baby characterised by her happy disposition!! Sometimes I forget that I'm blessed, and get cranky with her. It takes days like this every now and again to remind me to appreciate what I have. Actually, talking about appreciating what I have, Aaron came home with a wonderful idea the other day. He said we could write down positive things that we'd done for each other, things that were 'above and beyond'. One list for things that we felt were something special we'd done for each other, and one, a list of things that they'd done that had made us feel extra special. Aaron didn't want to start right away, but I have, because I know we fight a lot, and I need to start focusing on the good things about our relationship. In addition, I also started a list of the things that God does for me each day. I mean, you hear people say to count your blessings day by day, but I really want to have a more thankful attitude, and the only way I can think of to do that right now is to keep a record of my daily blessings. My first ones have been rather... well, 'try-hardish' I admit, but so, as I start looking for things, more and more I will see them. God does bless us all the time, but sometimes we just forget to look, or blank it out. Do you ever notice how much easier it is to focus on the negative rather than the positive? Sad, isn't it...?
Happy Leap Day 2008!!
