Five Things Friday

Five Things That Happened This Past Week That Made Me Smile:

1. This past week (with the exception of yesterday), I decided that it was time to try to start potty training Sarah. Monday we had quite the amount of piddle puddles, but by Wednesday, Sarah was smiling and piddling where she should be: the potty! She didn't seem to be excited about stickers as a reward. No, instead we've decided to fill her piggy with coins, which Sarah absolutely loves.


2. Now that we're moving in a couple weeks, I've been concentrating on getting us packed. Of course, where there's packing, there's also weeding out the things that we won't need. So, I've been Freecycling a whole lot of things online. It's nice to know that people are helping me clean my house.


3. Sarah gave me the best greeting this morning. Not only did I get a "good morning Mommy" and "I love you" but I got a very serious "Mommy, I love your face". What a great way to begin my day.


4. Is glad to have some relief in the weather today. Today seems like the perfect picnic weather.


5. We have a vacation coming up the weekend after Labor Day, so I was researching this past week on things to do while we are away. It's sad that the girls are growing up, but it's also nice at the same time that they are now old enough to get excited about fun trips.
