My Happy Things On January 20th

Big breakfasts in pajamas with P. And lunches, tea-parties and dinner.

Reading this article and really agreeing with most of it. And then reading this view on it and agreeing even more. And then reading this view and, once again, completely agreeing. I think the reason I was saying 'Yes!' while reading all three, is this: parenting is hard, and no matter how you get through your days, as long as you have a few moments of amazing, it all ends up worth it. I usually lean more towards the Carpe Diem side of things. But as all moms can attest to, some days the most amazing moments are spent on the couch after bedtime, cuddling up to a big glass of wine.

Finishing Projects. After dragging my feet for almost a year, I finally organized all of my 2009 and 2010 photos into one giant album. Last year I decided that I would print them and add them to an old-school photo album. Then I shoved the bright orange Shutterfly envelopes on a shelf and forgot about them. Just this week I organized them and now I have a 50 pound album to prove it.

Happy Blogs. Right now I am really liking this lady, this one, this one and this one.

Cooking yummy dinners. This week I made these subs and this quinoa salad with salmon.

Snow days when we don't have to leave the house.

Love, Lindsey
