Happy Valentines Day! I'm Back!

I'm back after 5 days of not being on here.

It was hard, but I know I've learned my lesson.

More on that later . . .

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

I made pink, heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast.

Some of them turned out all right, others, well, it was a good effort.

Daddy gave me a bag full of cookies 'n cream kisses.

Each kiss had a little positive affirmation for me to say 5 times daily.

I was so happy he did something for me.

I gave him 2 chocolate candy bars, a scented bath bar and a card.

I love this Prince Charming of mine.

He is such a good man!

Last Saturday, I had had it with my kids.

I didn't treat them with the respect they deserved and I regret it.

Because of my undesirable actions towards them, I was the one who went without privileges this week.

I had to go without electronics and treats for 5 days.

I couldn't blog, facebook, check e-mail or use the computer, Ipad or laptop.

I couldn't have desserts or ANY sweet treat or candy.

I craved my sweets so much the first 3 days.

I realized how much time I waste checking facebook and have made a goal to spend only 30 minutes a day checking e-mail, facebooking and reading others blogs.

I also decided that I don't need to eat as many sweets as I do and have decided to limit those to just desserts or treats others may offer.

So I learned a few good things by losing privileges.

But what I really learned, I learned through repenting.

I love my children and know they are precious in God's eyes.

They are His children and I will strive to treat them the way He wants me too.

Sometimes my calling as a mother is overwhelming at times, but "With God, all things are possible."
