1. Took the kids plus one neighbor boy to Fun City (mini golf, bumper boats, batting cage, slurpies) for my 12 year olds birthday. He's been wanting to go all summer. It was supposed to be a surprise but he wore me down with his incessant pleading, it was the last thing on our list we wanted to do before school started, and we started 8/31.We decided his birthday (9/1)would be a good day. Why is it that no one ever asks , "are these all yours", when there really is someone in the mix that is not mine. I never get to honestly answer ,"No."

2. Said yes to the piano teacher when she asked if she could come today instead of usual day. Success for me because I try very hard to stick to a routine and don't do so well on the fly.

3. Resisted all urges to jump on the computer and do what I wanted to do. Instead I kept to our routine and helped everyone with their school work and did some things with my preschooler and toddler.
