Today’s thankfulness post is, well… it isn’t deep, that is for sure.

Today I crashed at 4. It is normal in my day to have a 4 o’clock low. It happens. The kids have drained me, it is getting close to dinner. I have no energy at 4. At all. Usually I just work through it.

But today, all I wanted to do was close my eyes for just a little while. I haven’t been sleeping the best again, and Missy was up a few times in the night, Sir was also awake. I just needed a few minutes to close my eyes and regroup. I know all you mommies out there know exactly what I am talking about!

So. I grabbed the remote and checked out the DVR. Thank goodness we always keep a bunch of kids shows on there. Ones the kids really enjoy.

And it was 25 minutes of sheer bliss. I laid on the couch, closed my eyes and the kids just sat there and vegged. It was so mice I almost let them watch another just so I didn’t have to move. But I really had to get supper going.

Today I am ever so thankful for tv. For good quality shows that I don’t feel guilty about letting my kids watch. For the DVR which lets me play them back at anytime.

Yeah, I said it. I’m thankful for the tv.
