Have been intending to start an evaluation of how's-it-been the first half of the year, and in a blink of an eye, I'm already on the 15th of the month and that's still incomplete. I constantly tell myself to count my blessings, but sometimes my emotions get the better of me.
Being in this cloudy state makes me rely heavily on my feelings; which may not be the best thing.
My thoughts have been jumbled up, and I know that I ought to find some ways to do some decluttering within. I have been reading, and stumbling across articles that help give me some insights. Fundamentally, though, I need to take things easy. To not just jump to feel. To just take a breath and internalise what's important. And truly, what makes me happy is to remember that I have gems all around me.
These little ones make me happy. And if they are fine and happy, then I am happy too. I should not take my frustration out on them. I need to be more in control. I want to be more in control.
*continues to seek clarity ... but in the meantime, here's a simple activity that we did yesterday evening that definitely made the kids happy.

| Bringing Jake to the playground and having him swing makes him happy. |

| Having Kate sit happily on the swing, and squealing for me, her favourite person "Mommy mommy mommy" makes me happy. |
