Focus On The Positive
Today, I was reading The Thrifty Mama’s blog and found her post about focusing on the good things we are doing for our families rather than the things that make us feel inadequate. This is such good advice! Nine times out of ten when I take a step back and look at everything going on in my life, I focus on the things I haven’t done and wish I could find time to do.
So I’m going to borrow The Thrifty Mama’s idea and make a list of the good things I’m doing for my family! Feel free to join in, either in the comments section or on your own blog.
- I spend lots of time giving kisses, hugs, reading, and playing on the floor with the kids.
- I cloth diaper my kids.
- I cook homemade meals every day.
- I breastfeed Kelvin exclusively.
- I color with Ava on a regular basis.
Bonus: Ava knows almost all of the animal sounds.

I’ve been trying to do the sounds to animals for Myra when I read to her, but I’m not always sure what sound to make to every animal.
Panda bear (I think they’re usually pretty quiet), ostrich (they don’t say “tweet tweet”), fish (they don’t make sounds), koala bear (I think they’re usually pretty quiet too), etc.
Maybe you could help me out a bit
