Feel Good Friday: Lessons Learned

September 3, 2010

 

{What happened that made you “Feel Good” this week?  Choose a prompt and link up!}

 

I will be honest with you, it hasn’t been the most stellar week like the one I had originally planned.

Tyler was sick.

Emily hurt her hand bad, but not quite bad enough to elicit a cast.

And I am just plain exhausted.

Yes, we have had our high points throughout the day, but one night we were all just down and out.

And then we heard it.

Sarah was running around and around and around the house with Millie.  Millie was chasing the jump rope that Sarah was dragging behind her.  The extreme laughter and giggles echoed throughout the house and then Sarah stopped in the kitchen where the three of us were sitting and said,

“I am having so much fun, I just can’t even stop!!”

And that was all it took to lift the three of us out of our funk.

We played and were silly and suddenly we all felt a little bit better.

So on this long weekend, I hope all of you have so much fun, you can’t even stop!

 

**I  decided to try a different linky this week for Feel Good Friday.  I thought it was kind of neat to see all of the blog buttons.  If you are a participant, please let me know if you like it too, or if you would prefer to just list the links by name only.  Majority will rule.

Can’t believe how long it took me to comment! I got my post ready Thursday night. Didn’t post until Friday morning but forgot to link it here. Came home and I finally got it up. So crazy!

I hope you have a good next week! School’s starting.
