The Good and the Bad

Sometimes it is important to remind yourself of things you are good at, especially when there are times all your short-comings seem to be bopping you on the head. It is also important to really sit your short-comings down and have an honest conversation with them to see if improvements can be made. So here we are.

Kerry, you ARE good at:

Cooking (most things)
Teaching
Being honest
Polishing silver
Bargain hunting
Negotiating
Organizing
Packing (suit cases, cars, moving boxes)
Multitasking
Traveling
Math (according to me, not my GRE score!)
Reading
Pushing out/having a baby 
Putting together IKEA furniture
Breast feeding our baby 
Throwing make believe tea parties 

Things I'm working on, but kind of suck at right now:

Being a consistent blogger
Getting my little one and newborn up and dressed and out the door on time in the morning 
Putting away the clean laundry
Finding time to clean the house AND play with Lill
Finding patience even though I'm exhausted.
Getting to church regularly- I love my church, but I just haven't been able to get there- see above & below.
Balancing time between two children- I think this is the biggest issue right now.
Remembering to make a shopping list
Burping a baby- thank goodness for my husband

So just in the short time it took me to write this, I already feel better about many of these things I'm working on. Others will take time to fix.  Knowing that I can control my thinking and perspective on them is a big step in bringing about change. Until then I can't just sit and wait- there are diapers to change and princesses to be rescued!!! I
