Husband Encouragement

* Eli - daddy day on Wednesday - breakfast out, then fishing for the first time
* Hannah - mommy day on Wednesday - van oil change and shopping

Personal Goals

3 Things I'm Thankful for Today:
1. beautiful spring weather
2. Kevin's days off!
3. Eli's starting to wake up earlier these days so I've told him to stay in his room and play quietly or look at books when he wakes up, and he's been so good about doing that!

Join me with your plans! Blessings on your week!
