Just Good Things #56

I want to shout out to the babysitting CPR course I took in high school. It's 20 years later and things I learned then still come in handy.

Today, our daycare was closed for parent-teacher conferences. Our kiddo, who normally doesn't do these things, stuck a small bead up her nose. I was able to save us a trip to urgent care by doing the close the other nostril, blow in the mouth trick I learned. What could have been an awful few hours was over in five seconds with no pain or tears for anyone. My husband was all, "Where the heck did you learn that?!?!!?" 

Here's what else has made this week good:

• Listening to the birds sing while enjoying a hot cup off coffee when I got up earlier than planned
• Hearing how much our kid's teachers like her
• New sheets on the bed
• My awesome new black jeans
• Seeing the renovations in the condo down the hall 
• Kiddo running around in her fluffy Disney dress
• Surf and turf for dinner
• Having more volunteers than I need for a work project
• Being productive during kiddo's nap time
