The Problem With...

The Problem with losing weight is pants you love becoming too big
and then not wanting to buy new ones because you still want to lose.

The Problem with naming your kid with a unique name is people begin to realize how awesome it is and start using it themselves.

The Problem with going to Vegas is the week before being filled with anxiety about leaving your sweet babies.

The Problem with having a two year old sleep with you is you always have a sore spot in your back where he pushed his feet all night.

The Problem with working out is not only do you have work clothes to wash, but workout clothes, extra towels from showering, and PJ's. That makes a boat load of laundry....

The Problem with a husband that works shift work is children who see their dad only if they wake up before 6:30 which then in turn causes a mom trying to get ready while two little ones shout demands every thirty seconds.

The Problem with teaching is having no control over what happens after 3:30, before 8:30, and after May 30.

The Problem with living in the same town as your family is you tend to take advantage of babysitters.

The best part of losing said weight is regaining confidence that has been missing the last 2.5 years.

The best part of having a "Krew" is knowing that his name has actual meaning to his dad and I not just a cool name.

The best part of going to Vegas is getting some much needed time with my husband so we can remember who Seth and Lindsey are.

The best part of having a two year old sleep with you is how he wraps his arms around you in the middle of the night to make sure you haven't left.

The best part about having a husband who works shift work is he gets 3-4 days off every week to be a "stay at home dad." Which means he has a relationship with our boys that other dads can only envy.

The best part of teaching is for those 9 1/2 months from 8:30-3:30 you can make a difference even if it isn't as big as you had hoped.

The best part of living in the same town as your family is Sunday night dinners.

The moral with the story is while lately I have been a negative Nancy and only looking at the problem with EVERYTHING. I mean seriously I have cried over everything this week. That being said my goal for next week is I am planning on looking at only the best part of things even when that can be really hard. I am thankful for my problems when I know they could be SO much worse.
