Wednesday’s Everyday Beauty
This picture should be documentation that I usually DO wear makeup. This is me without makeup and a beautiful zit on my forehead. Quite sexy, I know.
Man I love them.
Even if at the end of the night I am ready to run away, I still love them. Sometimes the hour before bedtime is the hardest. Our Daddy doesn’t come home at a certain time, so most nights we are on our own.
I am so tired at the end of the day…really….tired. My energy is fizzling out. Sometimes I lock us in a room and just lie smack dab in the middle, letting them yank/sit/place toys on top of me while I rest.
My favorite nights are the ones where they jump into the tub, I jump into the shower next to the tub, and after we are all clean we hurry out as fast as we can, wrap ourselves in a warm blanket and hop on my bed.
Then we read P-A-L-M-S.
Yes Palms, for some reason my girls can’t say the word poems. Shel Silverstein is our best friend right before bedtime. The girls are entranced as I read about a boy with long hair that can fly or how to make a hippo sammie.
We all unwind. We all relax. I like this ending of our days together the best.
What Beauty do you find in Wednesdays?

That photo is fantastic! I can’t believe that you didn’t have someone else taking it.
I take a bath every night. I love to feel my baby move with the water, and it makes me happy that I get to be a Mother!
I must say I am loving this weeks everyday beauty’s
And I didn’t even notice the zit until you mentioned it. Lol! And to answer your question: I find it beautiful that I can love my kids even after a very long day, and I want to run away, too ;D When “our” Daddy comes home long enough to eat dinner and then has to leave to scouts, I am beyond overwhelmed and want to cry and scream and run away. But I love my kids so much that I don’t run away. That really is Beauty.
Great Post!
You know what beauty I find in Wednesdays? Glee, that’s what.
How could I forget Glee!!
I have Wednesday night to just me and my Monkey and I do the same exact thing. Especially if she doesn’t take a nap.
This particular Wednesday I found happiness in celebrating two years with my baby girl!
