It has been a little while since I have blogged. But not much has happended. This round has kinda made me tired and I have been napping each day for a few hours. i was able to go to Ty's feild trip on Monday which was great for me I was just a mommy not a teacher it feels great to have some of those moments now at school. It is nice to go and be a parent.I miss school everyday, I love what I do ans being away lets me know how lucky I am to do what I love everyday. Yes it is hard some days but what good things are not hard sometimes.
Today I wentto the doctors witha friend to have a prenatal check up. Onmy way how I thought why is my face hurting and I realized I was smiling so much my face hurt. I have not smiled that hrad in a while. It got me thinking what things trueluy make me smile or truely make me happy. So here is my list, make your own list.
In no particular order.

1. To hear a baby's heart beat (that's what made me smile today)
2. The way my children greet me after being at school all day.
3. Hearing my children laugh, belly laugh.
4. Watching a child do something for the first time.
5. A BIG snow storm, the kind your stuck at home and can't go anywhere.
5. Listening to children talk, when they think noone is listening.
6. To hear someone is pregnant.
7. The sound of the bat when a ball is hit hard.
8. Sitting quietly with my husband.
9. Watching my boys play with their Daddy.
10. Spending time with my friends.
11. Hearing an "old" song on the radio, that reminds me of my youth.
12. Winning... at anything really.
13. Having a nap in the middle of the day.
14. A good cup of hot chocolate.

I could go on really if I think about it but I guess this is a start. IT is helpful to remember what makes you smile when sometimes you feel like there is nothing to smile about.
Today I SMILED. I hope you do too!!!
