Just shut up and be happy!

I found myself today in a conundrum, as I do most every day... should I feel guilty about the store brand tater tots in the oven? I know they're not organic, or even good for us AT ALL, but shouldn't some things being good for the soul count? I washed the kids in organic natural shampoo after we got all sweaty and dirty playing catch in the yard, and faithfully made sure my son did all his homeschool assignments in a timely fashion. Why then do I have guilt that I am snacking on prepackaged tots playing Nintendo with my kids? So what if Mount Textile will have to wait just one more day to be relegated to the drawers and cabinets? I refuse to spend my life on the mundane. My children deserve to remember how great their childhood was, not how controlled and sterile it was! On the other hand, I wrestle with whether or not I am giving them enough structure... sheesh, it's enough to make your head spin! The conclusion I came to was that I needed to shut up and be happy, no matter what I'm doing, or how imperfect I am. If we are all curled up on the couch being veggies instead of eating them, that's ok for the moment. I promise I will make another batch of whole grain oatmeal raisin muffins in the morning. After I have my coffee.
