Little Reminders...

Honestly, sometimes it's hard to keep perspective, isn't it?  Life has it's ups and downs, it's times when you think it couldn't get better, and times when you wish so badly it would!  I think everything has it's good and bad- it's easy and it's hard- it's up and it's down... it's when the balance leans heavily one way or the other that you have to watch out.  For example.... this has got to be one of the cutest faces you've ever seen, right?

 

Yet, here I sit, covered in little white hairs, drowning in toxic fumes emanating from his general vicinity- looking forward to my 5:55AM wake up call.  It never fails, 5 minutes before the alarm would wake me up anyway... I never knew how much I could miss those 5 sweet minutes.  Good vs. Bad, Up and Down- Easy yet Hard...

School is OUT this Friday!  We are an excited bunch here!  I'm a little disappointed because I'll be working all weekend... dang furniture stores and understated holidays! Whoever thought that Memorial Day, or Presidents Day, or Labor Day would become some of the biggest furniture shopping days ever?? Kind of stupid if you ask me. I'll make money, (Good) but I'll miss out...(Bad.) 

 

Sometimes all you need is a little perspective.  I've felt the balance being a little off lately- and started feeling sorry for myself... but something little- or someone little, can make me realize how lucky I am to be where I am, to have what I have and to live like I do.  I am so grateful for those little reminders!
