Change is a good thing

Sorry so long since my last post. Teething, fussiness, and other "woes" have kept me preoccupied. So after much soul searching (and some darn good advice) I am going to make a real effort to live with an "attitude of gratitude" in all areas of my life. Tony & I have come across some rough patches lately, my two boys make me want to pull out my hair some days, life keeps trying to knock me down, and I feel like I am in danger of getting bogged down by it all.

So here is a new start......

Two things I am grateful for today are:
1. Having a peaceful dinner (just me & the boys) during a huge thunder storm. David & I were pretending we were Mr Brown (from Dr Suess' Mr Brown Can Moo, Can you?) and everytime we heard thunder his eyes lit up & he went "BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!" instead of getting scared or fussy. Joshua just laughed at us.
2. Tony made me lunch when Joshua was having a fussy period this afternoon. He even took the time to ask me how I make my tuna fish instead of just making it how he likes it.

  2. Great attitude! I need to take a cue from you. Life can get tough, but all it takes is a look or a smile or a giggle from our child(ren) and all is well. Amazing how that works, huh? And way to go, Tony! ;)
