My MANTRA

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls7ila3srzI

I was driving home last night from my Dad's house with my family and this song came on and it just hit me. I have been trying to find my mantra. I am making changes in my life with losing weight. At that moment I did with this song from Josh Groban.

JOSH GROBAN LYRICS

You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)


Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
When you're heart's heavy
I...I will lift it for you

Don't give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you
I...I will break it for you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved

Don't give up
It's just the hurt that you hide
When you lost inside
I...I will be there to find you

Don't give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you
I...I will shine to guide you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved

You are loved
Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
Don't give up
Every one is to be heard
You are loved

Allie

My niece Allie brings such a big smile on my face when I see her. She has such a wonderful spirit about her. A few weeks ago. Allie was sick and Amy was home with her. The day that Amy sent this picture of Allie I was having a hard day and was feeling stressed about work and some personal things in my life. Amy sent this picture and I just got a huge smile on my face and started to laugh. It was just what I needed to get me through my rough moment. With the picture she sent one sentence which explained it all.

I WANT ANOTHER BATH.

Thankful

Today I was thinking about what I am thankful for. I am so thankful for Cell phones with cameras. Here are some of the cute pictures that Danny has taken of my cute children.

These pictures have helped me through a hard day or stressful time at work.

Each time I see these pictures they bring a smile on my face.

I remember how grateful I am that I have such beautiful children and that I am blessed to have such wonderful children.

I am grateful for the love I receive each day from each of my children.
