Small Successes

Okay here goes:

1)For three weeks in a row we have planned out and mostly stuck to lunch and dinner menus! Unlike Rachel, I actually have to plan the meal first and then see if I have the ingredients. I'm not doing more than one week at a time at this point. But these successes are supposed to be small, right?

2)I have successfully taught my daughter that the rosary is not to be swung around. She is two, so this is major. She knows and most of the time remembers to sit quietly next to me while I pray and hold her rosary.

3)I am making a concerted effort to sit down each day with my husband to have an adult conversation.

I know, these are minutely small successes, but Rome wasn't built in a day and neither were cathedrals, and it takes a lifetime to get to heaven.
