"Thank you very much mommy"

I never knew how much my heart would swell upon hearing these words from my daughter.... I just don't know if she can get any sweeter! It's important to me that my kids are polite, but she does go a bit overboard sometimes... today she thanked me for going upstairs to get her brother ...I guess she was thankful the crying was going to end! Anyway, I'm just so proud of her and her good Canadian manners :)

On the cleanse front, today was a hard day.... could have easily have said 'screw it' and gone out for a burger or eaten all the chocolate we have on hand to reward Maya for going pee on the potty. That chocolate (smarties and mini-eggs) is sitting on the top of the fridge and usually I would have eaten it already and then probably gone out to replace it so that no one would know... however up until today I could even forget it was there. Thankfully I was able to get through the urge to eat everything in sight and stuck to the *plan*. We're gearing up for our juice fast on Sunday - I wonder how hard THAT will be?!....
