How Lucky You Are...

Greetings! It's LATE Friday night, and I'm sitting in bed, winding down after a long week. It was a long week for everyone in America though...

However, personally things were pretty good this week. Kindermusik classes went wonderfully.. and here we are, the weekend is here!

On Thursday, we had family haircuts... I took some pictures (of course!).






Today I helped set up a vendor event we were doing for Grow and Sing.


I couldn't stay because I had tickets to take Anna to see "Seussical the Musical". However we did stay long enough for an opportunity to pet a police horse.






It was the last show of our season tickets and it was GREAT! Anna wanted to pose in front of a poster so we would know what show she went to!







It was so nice to spend time with Anna one on one. I think we'll get tickets next season as well. Good stuff!

This weekend my mom is taking care of the kids, so Will and I are going to have some time together to relax. We are very much looking forward to that!! Especially since next week is a CRAZY work week for BOTH of us!!

And now a little inspiration. In the play we just saw, there was a song, that REALLY rang true, especially this week. I thought it would hit home for lots of us right now, so here you go, it's called How Lucky you Are:

When the news is all bad,

When you're sour and blue,

When you start to get mad

You should do what I do-

Tell yourself How lucky you are...

When your life's going wrong

When the fates are unkind

When you're limping along

And get kicked from behind

Tell yourself how lucky you are...

Why decry a cloudy sky

An empty purse A crazy universe?

My philosophy is simply Things could be worse!

So be happy you're here.

Think of life as a thrill

And if worse comes to worse (As we all know it will)

Thank your lucky star

You've gotten this far...

Hope everyone has a good weekend. And... just remember how lucky you are...

Love, Holly
