Reaching for Positivity
Welcome to my new blog. My goal here is to journal my family's life through good and bad. Let's face it...there is more and more negativity and sadness everyday in this world. I've decided to lift my spirits and focus on what little good remains.
I'll admit that in the last year I've been less fun than I would like. I let my depression get the best of me; I've always got an excuse to not have fun or be happy. All it takes to shut me down is a little attitude from my husband or kids - then I become useless and sad. These kids deserve better.
So now - let's do this right! Time to cook, clean, and care more than ever. My focus is my family - time to get over myself. I figure I can have a ton of fun in the hours I used to waste moping around. Imagine how many more books we'll read now that I'm trying NOT to cry all day?!We've got many adventures ahead of us: home school, new baby, future prosperity? I'm learning to take each day one at a time and live more for the moment. Enjoy the sun, summer, and stars.
