Small Successes- October 14th

Celebrating the little things in life that add up.

1. The laundry is washed and mostly put away.  It should be finished sometime early this morning. And, I cleaned the toilets despite the fact that they looked clean.  Now they look super clean, but I'm probably the only one who notices.

2. I came up with a new game plan for my third grade religious education class.  I stepped down from teaching 7th grade to teach this grade because I wanted to be able to play games and do crafts with an older class like I do with the kindergarten kids and so far we haven't been able to do it.  When I tried to play trivia games with the 7th graders last year they wouldn't participate.  The only game we successfully played last year was bingo and that only worked because candy was on the line.

3. I think I may have my Christmas card photo.  We went to the beach on Monday and of the 80 pictures snapped,  I think I like this one the best:

 Bryan and I are taking the girls to a different beach this Saturday to see if we can get a few more pictures of the girls.
