I've been in a bit of a mood the past couple days. I'm trying to get out of it because in addition to irritating my husband, I am driving myself crazy! I do that periodically...I don't know why. Once, while pregnant with Keali, I was being particularly difficult to live with but Heath was being wonderful...pampering me and doing whatever I asked of him. When I burst into tears, he asked what was wrong. I told him I was irritating myself and he just laughed. I guess he chalked it up to hormones. Oh well.
Yesterday I got a good start on the laundry that accumulated from the reunion. I should finish up today. We also have to go grocery shopping because we are out of just about every basic (butter, eggs, milk, etc). I just don't like to shop! I know that is against everything you ladies believe in, but I hate shopping. Heath is the one in the relationship that enjoys browsing and buying. Funny.
Kalyn is doing VERY well in adapting to being home again and away from her grandparents. She isn't nearly the brat she was last week (Heath's word, not mine!). She has even been issuing sweet smiles instead of orders! Keali is thrilled to be home and squeals with delight everytime she sees something she apparently missed while we were away. So cute!
I am so blessed to have a wonderful husband and two beautiful and sweet children. I never had any idea how blessed I was going to be while I grew up. I was reading a friend's blog yesterday and she made a statement about there having been so much work to have her babies that she enjoyed them even when they were a little difficult. I completely agree with her. I had to do a lot of stuff to be able to have my babies, and no matter how they misbehave, I love them so much and still think that they are tremendous blessings for me. They teach me patience (a little more every day) and love. Being a Mom isn't easy, but the rewards far outweigh the difficulties. I love my daughters!
