Week End Delights!

Even though it was a tough weekend (I came down with a bad cold which quickly turned into a sinus infection), I found so many delights!  My favorite part of this weekend was watching Thomas and William bond.  William is such a momma's boy that he never wants to spend one on one time with Dad.  This weekend was different because I was stuck in bed from illness, Daddy was in charge.  William happily followed him through work luncheons, errands, and a bit of disc golf with Uncle Trent.  I especially enjoyed watching a few runs of ring around the rosies and duck duck goose.  William doesn't quite get the concept of duck duck goose, but he certainly enjoys running around in a circle and hitting everybody's head and yelling 'Duck!'  At the end of the day everybody was exhausted, yet content.  I'm so lucky to be living such a happy prosperous life.

I realized how awesome my life is today right after a terrible two tantrum that lasted about a half an hour.  I was feeling extremely frustrated after such a traumatic ordeal.  I finally just gave William a bottle of milk (which I am trying to ween him off of... but tantrums and exhaustion always make me cave) and carried him out to the car so we could go to my doctor's visit.  As I loaded him into my nice new car I realized how ungrateful I've been feeling lately.  To even have the car that I was loading my healthy boy into is such a huge blessing.  I'm glad I've begun to look for joy in everyday life, because it helps me see past the frustrations that I focus on so much and realize how happy I truly am.
