Small Successes

1. Volunteered at Vacation Bible School this week for the first time. 
2. Squeezed grocery shopping in and only took 5 year old Elizabeth.  It was really fun for both of us.
3. Managed to stay relatively calm and peaceful during a very busy week here.  Really, I only let my frustrations get the best of me once.  About 10 things hit simultaneously that all threatened my well thought out plan for the evening, one of those being a crying toddler.  I am not good at this onslaught sort of stuff.  I know other people who handle it all very well.  Me?  I just need 5 minutes of complete silence, alone, to assimilate it all in my head and make a plan. It worked.
