It’s ok to have a chocolate cupcake for breakfast

It’s ok to have a chocolate cupcake for breakfast when the main ingredient is pumpkin, right? Well, if it was ok, I guess I would have openly devoured it in front of the kids instead of pretending to take a long time getting their milk out of the kitchen. My sister in law told me of this awesome “healthy” cake hack years ago, just cake mix and pure pumpkin. I just never craved sweets enough to make it….until now. I don’t think I’ve ever craved sweets this much in my life. Not good, not good at all. Why can’t I crave salads and raw veggies and all things healthy? GAH!

I think it's stress too. There is so much going on right now that it's hard to even comprehend. I wish these long deep breaths I find myself taking would turn the chaos into the organized plan that is in my head. One thing at a time. Some days are full of progress, others put us right back to where we were. I use the word relocation when I refer to what is going on because it sounds so much easier than moving. It doesn't make the actual process any easier though.haha.

I've been making sure to have very regular outings to get away from the craziness. Yesterday was a MUCH needed park day...just to run around and be crazy. Madeline makes friends the second she gets there and Joseph thinks he is just as big, tagging along and even going down the slide by himself!

 

I think we may need this again today. Come on out, sun!!!
