THE LITTLE THINGS IN LIFE NEED TO BE CELEBRATED.

Last week, I went to the grocery store with all 3 kids in tow! With Oliver being just a month old now, I have avoided running errands with all 3 kids under 4 for good reasons. But Thanksgiving was a coming and we needed some groceries. I packed everyone up (it only took about an hour 🙂 and made it out of the store alive, with groceries in hand and no meltdowns!

This was cause to celebrate, I tell you. And since I've been giving most of my attention to baby O, I caved in a bought some doughnuts for my other two. Who knew a doughnut could bring so much happiness and make up for some of the lack of attention they've been getting?

And let's be honest. I was going to celebrate right along with them!

How about a promotion at work? Or a good grade on a test? Or a child finally getting potty trained? Or doing something really hard?
