Achievement

Achievement can be described in all sorts of ways. One definition I found said, "something accomplished, esp. by superior ability, special effort, great courage, etc;

When you hear the word you may think: achievement would be getting into Medical School, graduating from Law School, getting a great job, or for the little people in our lives: walking, crawling, feeding themselves, etc.

This is how I think of achievement.

I was talking to John David yesterday and rattling through all the things I had accomplished that day! The list went like this...

I went to the gym,

I went to the grocery store,

I went to the dry cleaners,

I cleaned 2 bathrooms,

I took a shower, (fixed my hair and put on make-up)

I did 2 loads of laundry,

I made 3 desserts: no bake cookies, brownies and puppy chow (for our NC party),

I cooked dinner...

Out of all that, this is what my husband said, "I can't believe that you call getting a shower an achievement!"

And my reply was, "You better believe I do. That is a major accomplishment!"

Any moms agree with me????
