SOL 10: Rushed Mornings

As I was racing downstairs once again to the neglected laundry, my thoughts flowed. Mornings are hectic in our household. I try to stay upbeat and positive. It sets the tone for the day, a gift I lavish on my children as they walk out the door.

I began to mentally list my morning and remembered the young man who was featured on Just For a Month blog. He had written in his notebook the things that he liked. Here’s my list from my thoughts:

I’m thankful for:

• alarm clocks
• one husband-love him dearly
• three kids in double digits
• high school and middle school
• activities galore
• wrestling meets
• baseball practice
• band concerts
• “You forgot to tell me what?”
• trips to the basement for underwear and socks
• “Mom, where’s my shirt? You know the blue one with the football on it?”
• charging phones
• wet towels on the bathroom floor
• “Yeah and where’s my jacket?”
• rushed mornings
• quick hugs,
• treasured moments
• and yes, kisses on my cheek!

I’m thankful for … my family!
