Apparently, today is Doo-Dah Day!

On the way home tonight, Ethan asked me the funniest question:

"Mom, is today "Doo-Dah Day"?
"Umm...I don't really know. What's "Doo-Dah Day"?"
"Well, it's a day when we celebrate everybody and we all get presents!"
"Oh, really? Well, sure. Today can be "Doo-Dah Day".

It made me laugh so hard. He's made up his own holiday. It was a good reminder for me to celebrate the little things in life. Like the fact that I made dinner tonight and it didn't burn! (I have this tendency to be easily distracted!) Or the fact that the snow is melting and it's starting to feel like spring! Or the fact that I found this old dresser/buffet at the new Goodwill Outlet down the street for $4.99. I'm sanding it down, painting it and replacing the hardware for our dining room. So far, I'd say it looks great! I'll post pictures soon when the paint dries. A piece of furniture that needed a little TLC for $4.99 but now looks like it was a few hundred dollars? That's a reason to celebrate for me! :o)

A big "Happy Doo-Dah Day" to everyone! :o)
