Monday Mornings

The best thing I have done for my mental health is stop thinking about work over the weekend. I worry so much less. I sleep so much better. It is a lot easier now that we are debt free (except for the house), and I don't agonize over every $5 purchase anymore. Because really, we work for money.

I have so much empathy for people who are struggling with finances. The strain can be a huge distraction and burden to carry. I say this in gratitude for all of the comfort I have, the comfort I can offer to my kids, and all the help I have had and continue to received from my family.

Taking the tot to his new preschool (first full day!) is fun, and a nice start to the week. He loved putting his own lunch in his lunch bag and was so excited to go to school. I am so glad he is getting enthusiastic about school already!

Once the tot was out of the car and going to the playground with his teacher, Miss Grace, Kalit immediately got into his car seat.
