The Week That Was..

It is so easy to get caught up in what there IS still to do and what didnt get DONE.

I want to try and spend a few minutes at the end of each week, looking back at what we, as a family DID achieve and what memories we did create.

I hope to blog a reflection from time to time that I will call, "The Week That Was".  I am hoping this habit will allow me:

• to smile thinking about the great things we did do
• to appreciate that whilst I didnt get everything I wanted done, I got LOTS done
• to focus on the positives of what seemed like a busy stressful week
• to realise that even though life is so busy we did actually create some moments that mattered

I hope some of you will join me and create a small space of time to look back on your week.  I am sure it will provide us with some benefits.

Some of my achievements and moments that mattered were:

• Had family over to celebrate a couple of birthdays. 
• Set up this facebook and blog page
• Had a bonfire and toasted marshmellows and told some stories around the fire with the kids :)  Now that was fun and made the girls smile and giggle :)
• Baked some homemade goodies
• Did an act of kindness for a family in need
• Volunteered at school excursion that DD really wanted me to go to
• Made homemade icecream
• Attended a cute birthday party with my youngest daughter and loved seeing the kids having a gorgeous time and some quality time with other mums
