Have you ever woken up and from that moment nothing went as planned? Well, that was my day yesterday. I awoke at 5 am to organize and prepare some of Mateo's school stuff and I spilled half of my cup of coffee all over. Thankfully a drop didn't touch the computer but it managed to get on all the papers, the floor, the chair I was sitting in and all of me. Since I just woke up I needed (Moms you understand) that coffee, no big deal I will just make another cup (that I never was able to finish). Moving on...I did get in my morning exercise (Yoga) and was so thankful for those 30 minutes to myself. The kids all woke up about 8am and this is when the day really began. Jacoby was going to start potty training...but he wanted nothing to do with it. Mateo needed to start school but was totally procrastinating, and Nico just wanted extra love all day. I had planned on making more laundry detergent but that didn't happen. I planned on putting dinner in the crock pot so I wouldn't have to cook and everything would be ready before Mateo's soccer practice. That didn't happen. I ended up taking Jacoby to Chick Fila and Mateo ate some eggs after his practice. By the end of the day I had completed (washed, dried, folded, not put away) 3 loads of laundry. In a Mom world I think this is an accomplishment in its self.
Today...I set my alarm for 5am. I apparently turned it off and woke up at 6am. Had my FULL cup of coffee (and all the Moms said "Amen") even though I had to reheat it half way through. In trying to get Mateo's school stuff ready for the day I didn't spill anything on it but I spent an hour looking for some chart that is nonexistent in my books. Moving on...how important is that chart anyway? I guess we will find out. I am now ready to workout. I pull out my Yoga mat, turn on BOD (BeachBody on Demand) have a seat on the mat and Nico wakes up :/ I stand up to go get him, he falls back to sleep, come back to the mat to find out that something is going on with our internet. I guess I will workout later.
My point in all of this is yesterday those little mishaps controlled my day and my mood and they shouldn't have. I felt like I just couldn't catch a break. Today is a new day. I drank my whole cup of coffee, I get to look out my windows at God's beautiful creation.
The kids will be awake soon. I am thankful. I am blessed. I have a wonderful, hardworking Husband who loves and supports me. I have 3 beautiful smart boys. We are clothed and fed. Today is a new day, I get to choose my attitude and I choose for it to be a good one. Hope you have a blessed day!
