What made me smile today?
Baby's ability to be so gentle at times
Wondering what it means when Baby opens and closes his hands after I brush his teeth
Baby exploring new areas of the playground
Baby's giggle when he sees me when his dad takes him out of his room after his nap
Baby's babbling, and sometimes thinking I'm hearing an English word
Baby has a habit of putting his leg on his table, but he's been getting so much better at putting it back down again when I ask
What triggered me today?
I don't really remember specifics. I just remembering being grumpy when we came home from the playground in the afternoon as I was quite hot and tired, and I had a huge list of things to get through before I could settle myself again. And dinner again was messy, so that got me a little grumpy too.
What would I have done differently today?
I do remember being not as gentle as I would have liked at some point today (can't quite remember the specific scenario anymore!). I wish I could be gentle all the time.
What will I try to do tomorrow?
Triggers - breathe! Be gentle. Try not to go on about Baby being messy too much.
What am I grateful for?
Discovering the volunteer gardening scheme in the area which focuses on children and the elderly. Baby is too young at the moment to get into gardening, but I do hope that wherever we are in a few years time the council will have a similar scheme. In the meantime I look forward to visiting the garden and farm nearby, maintained by the volunteers.
