-cooking dinner

-getting classes of water
-giving hugs

-fixing broken toys
-taking family to the movies
-cuddling at super sad moments (even if i'm being told that i'm hated at those moments)
-taking kiddos swimming
-arranging play dates
-being quick to forgive even after being hit in the face by a flying YO-YO

I could go on but i think it's out of my system now, i really am grateful for this job! i'll try not to complain again soon

That really didn't seem like a complaint since you were saying that you were grateful for all of those things. I had a day like I'm sure you did, too. Happens all the time in fact. I guess we have to have frustrating days so that we can appreciate the good days so much more efficiently.
