    Forgiveness is the smell that Lavender gives out when you tread on it.-Mark Twain

    img_9311Every second of every day is an opportunity to be grateful. Grateful for the air we breathe, the beauty that surrounds us, our health, the children we are fortunate enough to raise, our loved ones, our friends. Every situation in life good or bad gives us an opportunity to grow and to be grateful. Even in the worst of times we can find something to be thankful about.  Live this way and you will see your life change for the positive.

    In life we experience ups and downs, rocky and smooth times. People disappoint us or surprise us. New friends come into our lives while others leave. Loved ones pass away and new ones are born.

    All we can do is focus on the positive, appreciate today, enjoy the ones we have and be grateful.

  • Enjoy Today

    August 18th, 2016

    image5You will never have this day with your children again. Tomorrow they will be a little older than they were today. Today is a great gift.

    Breathe and notice everything about them, smell and touch them. Study their faces and listen to their voices. Ten years has passed so quickly for my family. Although I yearn for the infant my daughter used to be I relish the present.

    Stop and really listen to what they are saying. Pay attention to everything about them. Enjoy the present. My husband always says that this day will never come again! He is right, hold your children close and breathe them in.
