Small Success - July 14

It’s important for moms to recognize that all the small successes in our days can add up to one big triumph. So here are mine.
  1. Today is the last day of my 10 day cleanse I think it went well.  It was very tough this time with Hubby being on 2nd shift.  I had to keep myself in check at the witching hour.
  2. Preparing for the Aukerman family reunion this Saturday.  I am to bring side dishes.  Thank goodness for KraftFoods.com! 
  3. All three kids passed their 1st level of swim lessons (Otters) - now they are onto Starfish and the deep end of the pool 
  4. Because of #3 I took the kids to a local swimming pool this weekend - the success was that I did that alone   - the bad thing was I did a poor job on sunscreen reapplication through the day.
What are your successes!  Please share them at Chocolate for Your Brain....

We really need to get swim lessons for the munchkins, but it always cost so much (esp. for 4 kids!) Hopefully soon!

Enjoy your family reunion! We have one coming up in August & I always look forward to spending time w/ our extended family!

Swim lessons have been a saving grace for us this summer. I am not so great at the sunscreen re-apps either. Which is very problematic for our one pale child. The one who got the recessive Swedish genes and turns the color of a tomato! But great job taking them all to the pool solo!

Yay! What a wonderful week. Keep up the good work - and don't beat yourself up over the sunscreen. I'm betting the glorious trip to the pool will far outweigh any short term discomfort from the sun!

Congrats on your cleanse and the swimming successes! That will be so wonderful for the rest of the summer to spend time at the pool :)
Have fun at the reunion.
