The thought for the day is....
Life is 10% what happens to you......AND 90% what you DO with what happens to you.
Durring an expecially difficult day....someone read this thought off of their "thought calendar". I have to admit...it helped me try to put life in perspective. This week has been one of those where it reminds me how much I wish I didn't have to work outside the home. Don't get me wrong - I am gratefull to have an amazing office to work in...and most of the people I work with ---I really enjoy working with. I just miss the opportunity to be a full time - -at home mom.
I do have to take a moment and recognize the gifts my children are learning due to my absence. I do firmly believe they are learning to rely more on each other, they are learning independance - -which some of them truly need to learn more than others. And I am learning I don't have to do it all myself - - there are wonderful friends and loved ones out there that are willing to help.
I truly feel blessed. I am surrounded by wonderful people - - even when I dont want to continue on the course I am currently on! Wow - -thanks ...I love you - - and you know who you are!
