Yay me for accepting help

It normally is extremely hard for me to accept help. I am not sure if it's because I think I can do it all myself all the time, or something else. In any case, today we had a post-high school age girl from 4-6 p.m. It was so nice to have the extra pair of hands. I was able to take a shower, get dinner going, and relax a little during what is normally coined "the witching hour" part of the day.

I had told her that I would want just once a week, but now I'm rethinking that. Maybe on Friday.

Today was day #3 of potty-training and just one small accident when Adara went outside to play. I guess she was just distracted. It is all so new. I had her take the wet underwear off by herself, and throw in the laundry basket. Teaching her responsibility. She also lets me know on her own when she has to go, I have stopped asking her all the time, just here or there. We have still not left the house, and I imagine I will wait until next week to venture out.

Here is a pic of these super mama zucchini picked fresh by my boys' from the garden! Amazing to see the fruits of one's labor!

What to make?
