Positive Thoughts

Most people who succeed in the face of seemingly impossible conditions are people who simply don't know how to quit.

-Robert Schuller

Ok, last week I had a negative day!   So what better way to make up for that than have a positive weekend with my babies!   Yes, the Saints lost, but they had a great season! 

Cole and Hannah went to their cousin's birthday party Saturday night and Sunday they "helped" me put the fall and Christmas decorations in the attic...when I say help, I mean they stood on the bottom of the steps to make sure I didn't fall...LOL.  It was such a beautiful day out that they wanted to "make a tent" in the backyard.  I have a huge tent but I had bought a smaller one that I hadn't used yet so I set it up for them and THEY LOVED IT!   They played in it all Sunday and Monday while I cleaned house.   It was just a nice, relaxing weekend at home (except for the cleaming but that wasn't too bad either).  I feel like I accomplished alot! 

On a sad note, today I am praying for Courtney Roth who lost her son Tripp to EB over the weekend.  Most, if not all, of my friends know this story.  I cannot imagine the feeling over losing a child, no matter how much you think you are prepared for it.  I am praying for Courtney for strength to go on with her guardian drummer boy watching over her, safe in Jesus' arms.
