I have been trying to untangle yarn for the last hour. I think my eyes are crossing! But it is all good- when I am done, I can continue to work on my new blankie. If the hubs wasn't snoring on my lap, I would have given up long ago. But I didn't want to move. 

Thankfully, today was so much better than yesterday. My chicks woke up happy and healthy. Well, mostly healthy. P has had a low grade fever on and off today. Who knows what that is all about. 

But yeah, we had a mostly good day. And because I didn't want to pull my hair out, I was able to make some yummy apple stuff. I canned some apple pie filling. J tried some on ice cream tonight and he said it was good. I also made a batch of applesauce with Golden Delish apples. Hopefully tomorrow I will make my pink applesauce. And then I will only have my Granny Smiths to deal with. They are my favorites to eat, yet I am having issues deciding what to do with them!

...I was thinking about the 'stay at home mom' thing today. I love it. Because my job description is different from my friend's, whose is different from her neighbor's, whose is different from my sister's... And every day is different. Honestly, today I had planned on relaxing in my pj's, playing with the girls, and cooking a little. On top of that, I went to the store and cleaned some. And froze because of the temp dropping 20 degrees in a few hours. 

No, my life isn't scheduled. No, I do not get dressed up every morning and go to an office. No, my every day life isn't really work. My every day life is fun. I play with stuffed animals and read books. I watch Sesame Street and bake. I try to lead by example. I hand out hugs and time outs.

Every day I get to teach my daughters a million things. 

The number one thing I teach them? There is nothing more important to me than my daughters. They are more valuable to me than anything in this world. And they are definitely worthy of my time.
