Reaching

Lately I've wanted to write something positive and fun and post some pics on this blog. However, I continue to forget to bring the camera to download new pics and I have to scrape through the sour part of my brain and get to the sweet stuff.

Here are some positives that I came up with:
**The addition and it's clean-up are ALMOST done. Slowly, but surely , we are getting things back together and the addition is breathtaking.
**The sunny weather is allowing our lawn and "garden" to grow in and looks pretty normal.
**Work is not too terribly stressful this week. I'm able to let myself work at a pace that normally wouldn't be acceptable.
**My time spent in the office chair is more enjoyable than time spent up and walking, this is normally reverse. I am really getting huge and the bones in my feet sometimes feel as though they might puncture the skin on the bottom of my foot when I walk too much.
**Bella is talking more and more. She loves on me and tells me she likes me and that I am her friend. Awww, what a girl!
**My Mom being gone made me realize that she and Bella may have needed a break from each other. My Mom is awesome with her. She doesn't drive and no one usually comes over so they are pretty much in the same place all day, every day, until we pick her up.
**The baby in my belly is strong and perfect in size. She tries to put her foot through the side of my uterus sometimes and even though it hurts mildly, I enjoy it. I just can't wait to bond with her too.
**My husband has been put through some of my hormonal rages lately and he survived. That's a positive, right? My rages are short usually or long bouts of crying. It's pretty unnerving even to me, but it is what it is.
**Tommy makes me feel safe and good. I still would have been a lost soul with even more anger issues if not for him.

There are positives everywhere and I need to soak them in. This is the EASY part of being a Mom, that I know.
With luck and positive thoughts, things will be more fun and enjoyable.
I just found my new motto... if I can remember it.
