Every day I sacrifice.  Not in a meaningful or spiritual way.  More in a I sacrifice 2/3 of my “to do” list in order to accomplish the other 1/3.  Today I got all my important work done.  I got my children from place to place on time with various tasks done at each point.  I even made it out to a Boston Brunchers event which is part fun / part blogging / part networking /another part fun.  And I sacrificed some of my writing (which will wait until tomorrow) so I could put together a book I’ve been meaning to do for each of my children.  The incentive to get it done, was to have it for Valentine’s Day.  The extra push was a 30% discount on Shutterfly (plus free shipping).

I know the books are not perfect, but I hope they’ll be meaningful for my kids because they don’t hear enough how wonderful they are.
