Counting My Blessings: Week In Review
It was a whirlwind and busy week. There were some days that didn’t go as planned and I got upset about some minor inconveniences. Rarely do my days go exactly as I plan, but sometimes I do not react well when it changes (need to work on this more). Especially thankful for a gracious husband and understanding people in my life who encourage me when I feel like things are flying apart. There was so much to be thankful for last week.
I want to be accountable to you so the following are snip-its of some of the things I am thankful for this past week. Counting My Blessings – Week In Review:
Monday – Thankful for the kids teachers (it was teacher appreciation week). The girls decided what they wanted to get their teachers, wrote their own thank you notes, and delivered them. Being a teacher isn’t always easy (neither is being a student at times), but we are thankful for the time the teachers invest into our kids.
Tuesday – Thankful for well behaved kids. The girls had to go with me to one of my appointments and they sat patiently and quietly in the lobby for over an hour reading, drawing, and other activities while waiting on me to wrap things up.
Wednesday – Thankful that Brina may only have one more week with spacer adjustments. She is getting close to where she needs to be positioned. If she gets to the right spot by this week, she will just need to hold in that position for the next several months without any more nightly turning. Yay!
Thursday – Thankful for patient, understanding, and kind husband. He listens. He cares. Despite all my imperfections, failures, and the drama over the little stuff he still loves me. I am truly blessed.
Friday – Thankful for my cousin Renelle. It is always great having a chance to catch up with each other. Even though there are many miles between us it is good to know that we can still stay in touch and encourage each other as we go through various stages in life. She always knows how to make me laugh. It is nice having someone you can bounce ideas off of and they don’t think your crazy!

A lot of extra items were going on last week with Jake traveling for work, the new HVAC getting installed, the girls State testing, and so much more. Hopefully, this week will be a little quieter and we will be able to be more productive as well as relax a little bit too. We did have a relaxing Sunday celebrating Mother’s Day even with Jake being on call over the weekend. There was so much to be thankful for last week.
I want to be accountable to you so the following are snip-its of some of the things I am thankful for this past week. Counting My Blessings – Week In Review:

Wednesday – Thankful for doctors who are quick to respond, assist with questions, and willing to work around our schedule.

Friday – Thankful that the girls were able to finish another round of State Testing. Also, our HVAC is almost completed. It is working they had to come by for a little bit on Saturday to wrap things up.

Last week was a busy, fun, and crazy kind of week, but all went well. We managed to get some items done and have a little fun as well. It was the first full weekend in a long time that we stayed home which was really nice for all of us. Thankful for some time together over the weekend and that we were able to work in the yard since it wasn’t raining. There was so much to be thankful for last week.

Monday – Thankful to get all the laundry washed and put away. Grateful that we have clothes to wear and that we are taken care of.
Tuesday – Thankful for the girls help in getting the pool items cleaned up and out of the front yard. They worked hard and were a huge help (and we had fun doing it together). Thankfully it was a hot day, but was got soaked cleaning off the mats.
Wednesday – Thankful for my man and everything he does for our family. Always love it when he comes home, get my hug, and a chance to catch up with him. He is always appreciative of my cooking even though the recipes don’t “turn out” as good as I hope.
Thursday – Thankful that we are able to get our HVAC unit replaced. Grateful for a husband who insists we have an Emergency Fun for these types of events because we were able to transfer the money over to pay for it. It will take a little bit to resupply the Emergency Fund, but at least we were able to get it. Also, thankful for the people who are installing it. It is a lot of hard work getting all the old stuff removed and the new items put into place.
Friday – Thankful for a date night with my Handsome Man! Love getting to spend some extra time one-on-one with him. I am very blessed to have Jake as my husband, words could not accurately express how much I love him.

Last week was crazy busy with everything going on with school. Extra projects, Science Fair, teachers trying to get the kids ready for all the state testing we have this year (which seems like it’s a lot). Not to mention Jake was traveling and a mirad of appointments that I had to go to throughout the week. I am thankful for some time we got to spend together over the weekend even if it was still pretty packed full. There was so much to be thankful for last week.

Last week past in a whirlwind of activity. I have to admit I did not get all 10 blessings listed each day last week with all that was going on and the later nights with after school events, however, I was thinking about it a lot.

We were closer to our normal schedule last week even though it was busy and Jake had a quick work trip. It was nice for the most part to be back home again. I was able to get most of the laundry and unpacking completed in time to pack our suitcase for our STEM Robotics Competition trip this past weekend. Thankful for the opportunity to spend time with the family and be able to coordinate my schedule so I can do packing throughout the days or in the evenings once the kids are in bed.

He made me toast for breakfast that way I would have something to grab and eat before heading out the door to drop the kids off at school and go to my appointment.
Friday – Thankful for an opportunity to go down to Columbia the night before the State STEM competition with the family. We had a chance to hang out together and relax as a family before the busy activities of competition began.
