Sometimes...

Sometimes I drink from a water bottle with backwash in it.

Sometimes I roll over in bed and feel a Matchbox car under my back.

Sometimes I sing the Clean Up song while mopping the floors.

Sometimes I wish that people would understand that two-year-olds touch the entire toilet and would think about this when they skimp on cleaning them well.

Sometimes I read scripture and re-interpret it into three-year-old lingo in my head.

Sometimes I save ice cream and the 'good' snacks for after my children are sleeping.

Sometimes I pick up clothes off the floor of Noah's room and smell them to see if they can be put away without washing.

Sometimes I ask for advice from my children.

Sometimes I forget that there are restaurant options other than the ones that offer children eat free nights.

Sometimes the reality of my life just brings a smile to my face.

All the time, I think that this is the best life I could have ever asked for.

Love the list! I'm catching up on all the posts here I've missed. I love the sweet picture of your little ones below. So precious! They will be such good little helpers for you when baby girl gets here. We are working on the potty traing for the second time. Anna Grace was completely potty trained a month ago, and then got a tummy virus, and we have regressed. She was afraid to go on the potty for a week, becuse she was afraid it was going to hurt. Bless her heart. We are half way there. Praise the Lord! We are working on no accidents with #2. Is it weird that I pray about potty training? I'm sure the Lord has better things to worry with, but, it's a mommy thing I guess. ~Blessings my sweet friend!
