my wants/ my haves

[aebaby]

lately things in the house have been a little crazy and stressful.  questionable lay-off with my husband, needy kids, a new puppy, starting school...it's making me crabby and I think- I want 5 minutes to myself!  but I get it and I'm still crabby.  Sooo... it's a frame of mind thing.  I need to focus on what I have.

• I have two smart funny little kids who want to do things with me and play
• I have a husband who gets up every day and deals with the emotional and mental stress of running a multi million dollar branch office in a down economy
• I have a wonderful side business that allows me to be creative doing what I love
• I am creative and smart, I don't struggle to get by and understand the why of things
• I can run out and get a package of oreos whenever I want- without worrying about how I will pay for it or get there.
• I have people around me who I can call and will come if I need
• my kids go to school in a great area and love thier teachers and classmates!

There are a ton more things and I know it- but right now my 5 year old and I are going to make some chicken noodle soup on a rainy Saturday.

Moral of the story- the glass is half full.
