Overwhelmed!

Yesterday was just one of those days. Nothing was going particularly wrong, but nothing was going particularly right either. Laundry seemed insurmountable, every room in the house was a mess, my part-time job was piling up and dinner was just out of the question. Luckily, we were able to accomplish some school work and that is always a breath of fresh air. Rose Marie did a new transferring work, using chopsticks and it was a huge hit! She had gotten away from transferring works for awhile, but it was a welcome change of pace yesterday. Samuel did his very first "spooning" work and he LOVED it! It is so fascinating to watch a child in the middle of their work and see what interests them the most. He was so careful not to spill, and if he did, he was quick to pick up and put the little ball back into the proper bowl. This is a skill that is still extremely challenging to him, but he was not frustrated by it all and seemed to enjoy trying to do it over and over again. Hopefully, I will push past the overwhelming feeling of yesterday, and just relax in the little things that are being accomplished. I just need to vent a little. :)

*Sigh* I know what you mean. Exactly. Minus any kind of school getting done . . .
I love you, girlie!
