To Do:
- LAUNDRY! ( so very behind on this)
- deep clean kitchen and bathrooms (ewww)
- make a whole bunch of beautiful bible covers and list them in the etsy shop ( Keep your eyes open for all new products)
- survive my husband being away on business for two nights, victoriously! (victory in Jesus)
- read my bible and pray (definitely the key to surviving the week)
- stick to weight watchers and lose two more pounds (doing good so far, still more to go)
- make dinner for the kids while daddy is gone ( we usually just eat cereal)
- be patient and compassionate with my sick, teething baby (poor cranky kid, love him though)
- make tiny zippy pouches to list for teacher gifts ideas (are you looking for a little gift? Tuck some lip gloss or a gift card into a cute, ruffley zippy pouch for a handmade touch)
- workout with Jillian every day (she's a slave driver)
- make spring and 4th of July banners (these are so cute)
- do one cooking project with the kiddos ( the three chefs, at it again!)
- finish the boy bag prototype ( I know, I know, I'm taking forever, soon I promise)
- enjoy each moment I have with my family and try not to sweat the small stuff
So yeah, the hubs will be out of town for part of the week and we have a lot on our plate. I'm feeling a bit concerned when I think about being on my own with these three busy kids. Here's a big shout out to all you single moms, or military wives! You are amazing!
So I'm planning ahead and making some goals to make it a great week. Lists motivate me and keep me on track. This is just my broad list for the whole week, there will be smaller more detailed lists each day that will include these things on different days. Some of these things will get put on each list simply to remind me to have a trusting heart and happy attitude.
Do you use lists, do you love them like me?

You'll be fine! I promise. :)
small goals are the way to get through it though. Don't look at the big picture...just get your little family to whatever your next goal is. 2 days (or 12 months) later and you are all alive and mostly sane for a reunion!
My banner arrived today. i LOVE it. Thank you so much.
