My patience runneth over

I had the opportunity to get away for the weekend and it was SO great to have some time to relax and have just adult conversation for 48 hours straight. Although it was hard the second evening to not have the kids with me, I was able to get great sleep and enjoy some girl time. I came home on Sunday and it felt like I was away for a week. My patience has been filled to the brim and I feel like this has really made me a better mom. As much as it is hard to get time to go away, I know that things like this even for 2 days can make all the difference. It was also reassuring to know that the kids were so well taken care of and that they had a great time with their grandparents, aunt and cousins. So we begin the week feeling very refreshed and ready to take on the days. With B's O.T. appointment last Friday, I have also been equiped with some new tactics to curb some of his behaviors and I'll be sharing more as I use them more and see if they really are working better.
This is one of the views from my mini trip
