Outside of complaining about my kids bad behavior when it was time to leave Disney today, I really didn't complain much. I think that I get slightly better at it daily..except on the days where I don't..lol. But I have found that it makes me a more patient and empathetic person. Because I have to look for a reason not to complain, when it is just so darn easy to do it anyway.
Today the kids and I went to Disney's Hollywood Studios for a while.
We took pictures and played patty cake with Mickey Mouse and Chip and Dale.
I really wanted to get Mike and Sully too, but we missed them. I will have to go back and get them myself I guess. But they are super important to me because Elijah had these sweet little monsters Inc blankets he used to sleep with. So I will get to them somehow.
Anyways, thanks to one super awesome person donating $200 today, and another super awesome person donating $30 yesterday, we are $235 closer to opening our Love, Elijah art therapy room this summer!
I will also be trying to write grants this week and looking into other forms of funding..but I am feeling really hopeful that this could come together smoothly.
And I really hope to do more patty cake videos for Elijah too! I have some cute ideas...I have to just keep trying.
That's all I can do.
Tomorrow I am going to donate some copies of "Hi Little Sunflower" to an angel suite that another Angel mommy help get started in memory of her daughter.
It is a very mixed emotional state to be in because I am so honored and happy to help, but at the same time...I wish there was no reason for the donation to be needed.
If you want to purchase your own copy of "Hi Little Sunflower" you can now find it in paperback form on Amazon.
Well. I kept the kids up too late, and now I am up too late, but I sure am thankful to have longer days back. I need more sunshine.
Oh sweet sweet boy. What would I do if they placed you in my arms again? I would play patty cake forever and never let you go. I love and miss you to the moon and back...and more than that.
Goodnight my boogie. Shine down on me. <3
