On a Brighter Note.....

I am constantly painting the girls' fingernails and toenails.  I made a comment a few weeks ago about going to get it done at a salon.  Big Mistake!  They've been asking me nonstop when they could go.  Soooooo, today was the day.  I had done my research to find out which salon had kid chairs.  They were thrilled.  They picked out their colors and sat in their cool chairs.  One of the ladies asked if I wanted to get mine done.  I said no.  Then she went on about how I should get mine done too and I need to pamper myself, blah, blah, blah.  That's when I realized---yes I do everything for my kids but nothing for me.  That's what my mom did too.  You know what??  I'm ok with that.  I like to see the looks on their faces when they do something new and exciting.  Do I need a pedicure?  Heck yeah.  You should see my feet.  Did I get one today?  No.  I happily sat with the kids while they got their nails done.  I paid and left.  Was the lady just trying to get my business?  Probably but I saved a few dollars....
