Tennessee Tease

Tennessee Tease...I just LOVE this weather!

Well...if you have any idea what the weather has been like her in Tennessee, you would understand. One day it is cloudy, the next pouring rain...ALL DAY LONG, the next day beautiful sunshine (For a few precious hours), TODAY...SNOW!
I didn't know we were moving to Seattle, WA., but that is what is feels like right now.
It is amazing how the weather can have such a huge affect on your mood. I have never been a depressed person, but it is so easy to be depressed here. So, today, as I was sitting here thinking about how depressed I was, I began thinking..."Why does it have to be this way?"
THE ANSWER: IT DOESN'T!!

I am always telling Taylor that he just has to choose to be happy...look in the mirror Josie...I decided that this time I needed to take my own advice.

To snap out of my little "poor me" moment I began chasing Cruz around. Now I understand why we are supposed to become like a child. It is amazing how pure and sweet their joy is! The smallest and seemingly insignificant actions can bring them to their knees...because they are laughing so hard!
I am so thankful for my kids, for the sweet pure joy that they bring me!

So today, I am making a choice...instead of frowning I choose to spread my smile!

Today, laugh...you will be amazed by the power!

P.S. I got a new camera and need a reader for the SD Card. It is on its way in the mail...so you will have to wait to see how much the kids are growing.
Cruz weighed in at 28 3/4lbs.
Rosie weighed in at 10 lbs. 11oz.
Yippee!!

Josie!! Oh your post brought tears to my eyes! I'm sorry the weather sucks over there. It can't be worse than Pocatello's weather can it? I needed your post cuz I've been kinda down in the dumps. I started my student teaching and it has been kind of a rough experience so far. A big adjustment! You are so right. I just need to choose to be happy! I can't imagine living so far away. I hope everything is going good for ya! I wish I could have seen you guys at Christmas too. Tell Taylor and your little family HI for me.

Love Cicily
