weeping willow

"Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy." Anne Frank

I have this quote displayed on the wall above my computer screen as I type this. I see it everyday, and yet so often I forget what it says. Well actually, I forget to do what it says. 

I've had a good morning. Whites are washed, folded and put away. Took Sawyer and Bruno for a walk (trying to take the dog out at least 3 x's a week since his attempted escape). Caught up on some dvr shows that made me cry. Read some blogs that made me cry. Working on my talk for a church activity tomorrow and reading my journals from when I was 16 that are making me cry. 

All good tears. Grateful tears. 

Just need to remember to be happy, even when I struggle in life. If Anne Frank could do it, why can't I?? 

Gonna go roll around the living room with my happy boy.

I wish I was as witty as your sister, but alas that funny gene you both have did not come from me. You make me smile Megs. Always with a grateful heart, I smile that you were give to me. I wish I could come over and roll on the floor w/you and sawyer. xxo Mom
