patience.


Over Thanksgiving break I crossed everything off of my to do list: got a little haircut, took my mom on a date, took the boys to Wreck it Ralph, watched all of the Harry Potter movies, made pie, pumpkin rolls and carmel, set up all the Christmas stuff, and had fun. 







Somehow I still ended up being disappointed in myself. 
I envisioned everything being all butterflies and rainbows when I got home. 
It wasn't. 
Nolan pokes me, gabe squeals loudly, satchel slams the door, mom yells for walker to come upstairs. 
it's so incredibly loud. 

Everyone moves so slowly, the day is halfway over before we actually have a plan of what we're going to do. Nothing turns out the way I want it to and I just end up being angry and frustrated. I hate being in my own little zone in college and getting home and getting all freaked out because everything is different. I feel so bad for taking it out on my poor, adorable family. I love them so much but I get frustrated so easily! So here's to an early New Year's resolution. 

I will be more flexible. I will try my hardest to go with the flow. If things don't go my way, I'll be ok with it! Also, I should probably learn to not have any expectations at all, just let it be...
