Everyone defines success differently. Some days I define it by the fact that everyone is still breathing when their head hits the pillow at night. As a stay at home mom, the days start to run together after a while. School drop off, do some house cleaning or shopping, school pick up, lunch, naps, school pick up again, start dinner, eat dinner, homework, baths, bed, fall onto the couch exhausted.
But, today I'm defining success as this:
Five baskets of folded clothes. Never-mind the fact that the laundry isn't quite done, or the fact that I still have to put all of it away. Today, this is success.
I just folded mountains and mountains.... While watching a movie! (Courageous... A tear jerker...) I agree... It is sure nice to celebrate a small success... Even if it is just laundry!
