Just Another Monday

I read a friends blog last night and saw that she had recorded all her doings of one her days.  I was amazed at everything she accomplished and decided that maybe I ought to do that.  Not only will I probably be reminded of how much I really do (even when I don't feel like I accomplish a darn thing) but I'm sure I'll get a kick out of it some day, won't I?

So here ya go...

-Woke up and said my prayers at 6:00 before going in to wake up the kids.  (mostly I prayed for patience...I was sort of feeling grumpy still from yesterday)
-Helped Spencer get dressed...I have to keep him on task.  Watched Sarah do her own hair and okay it for her to go downstairs.  All the while whispering...trying to keep little Alli asleep.
-Feed the kids breakfast, packed their lunches/backpacks, read scriptures to kids while they ate, said family prayers.
-Talked with Justin on the phone and passed it around to each child.
-Put Sarah on the bus, got Spencer practicing the piano, did the dishes, put Spencer on the bus.
-Ate a bowl of cereal and my green smoothie while I watched the Today Show.
-Did 15 minutes of Pilates/Yoga until Allison woke up.
