Happy March!
Today has been one of those amazing do-nothing-and-sit-on-your-butt kind of days. Jake had to work, so Evie and I have been doing the bare minimum to keep ourselves entertained. We started on some dishes until Evie dumped a considerable amount of dirty water on the floor. Did a few loads of laundry...
And while my sweet baby rests her eyes, I managed to sneak into bed with comforters all pulled up...Diet Pepsi and Oreo in hand so I can type my blog for the day.
I find it so amusing that I have all this knowledge floating around in my head and then suddenly...*poof*...it comes to the forefront of my mind like I had an epiphany when in all actuality I knew it all along.
One thing that struck me today is how very much alike my daughter and I are. While she is not the spitting image of me physically, that girl definitely has some "Sarah Lewis" running through her veins...she mimics a lot of what I do, my facial expressions, my mannerisms. Naturally, I find this truly endearing. And it also makes me think about how special my determined, ornery daughter is.
Another thing I noticed recently is that I am much harder on myself than I need to be. I beat myself up over minute details, hold myself to ridiculous standards, and crash when I realize that they are unobtainable. I began to notice this a few months ago and have been working on the time management and goal-setting, which has led to much more success in reaching my goals. Turning a new leaf, I am more confident...I have better self-esteem because I have learned how to set myself up for success and not failure.
I hope that you all are enjoying your Sunday as much as I am reveling in mine. Here's too many more relaxing days with your loved ones.
XOXO,
Sarah.
