The Truth About a Bummer Day...

So I obviously am no longer doing the Photo a Day challenge. Too busy, and not as fun as I thought it would be :) You live, you learn.

I got some bummer news this morning that kinda took the wind out of my sails for the rest of the day. Nothing too serious, but enough to get me down and make me question if we are ever really going to get ahead of life.
I sat Asher on my bed and started to fold laundry while wallowing in self pity- completely caught up in my own mind and oblivious to anything else going on around me. I was absorbed in feeling sorry for myself, and allowed some serious feelings of ingratitude take over my thoughts. Then I glanced up and saw this:

I am totally going to risk sounding really cheesy , but nothing keeps me grounded like this little guy. I am ashamed to ever doubt or feel sorry for myself when my day is constantly filled with priceless moments like these. This kid has been my lifeline on so many occasions, and the Truth is... I am not sure how I will ever be able to return the favor.

  1. TOuch the cow....do it now.

    I am sorry about your bummer news. Two steps forward, one step back totally sucks. But you are lucky in so many other ways.... love, Asher, sisters, fabulous hair. It will work out and when it does you will be that much stronger.
