Toys scattered everywhere. Terrible two mode on full blast. Dog running through the house with mud all over her feet.

Stop.

Close Your Eyes.

Breathe.

Let your mind go somewhere else.

Sometimes there are those days where it seems nothing is going your way. Where your patience is frayed and you think you can’t take anymore. It’s ok…I know how you feel. I’ve been there. In fact, I was there yesterday morning.

Close your eyes and know that there are mothers around the world who are right with you. Gritting their teeth and clenching their fists. Just remember to stop, close your eyes, breath and let your mind go somewhere else. You never know…when you open your eyes your day might get more colorful (just like mine did as you can see below). Plus, smashing confetti eggs on the little monster’s head feels pretty good too!

    Love these! My last 3 pics are my favorite… The colors just POP! I love the confetti eggs and then love watching my husband say ‘How are you going to clean this up out of the yard?’… um I’m not 😉

    Oh yeah, mommy! Then there is a mess to clean up! Outside is a good place to do it. Let the wind whirl it around and forget about it. Definitely a close your eyes day!
