Wonderful Compliments . . .

Today we decided to go to the Chinese Buffet after church. I am usually a little nervous about taking all the kids to a restaurant by myself, because, sometimes you just never know how there going to behave. And since I am not feeling like my usual self, (pregnancy with twins) I was a bit hesitant.

Anyway, through the course of our meal, six . . . . . six actual different people came over to our table to compliment me on how well behaved my children were!!! I was so glad to hear this!! Sometimes when you stay at home all the time and end up going through a drive thru because it's easier, you lose sight of how well you are actually doing as a parent. And how well behaved your children can be. This has really given me a little boost to keep going. (like I actually have a choice!!! :) It just makes it a little easier, like I can sometimes see a little glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel. Not that I have a horrible time with my kids, but, parenting 24/7 is difficult, for anyone.

It was a very nice end to the day.
