Childhood Should be Magical






I BELIEVE this from the very most bottom~est

Part of my HEART!




I struggle with depression....

just minor im sure...



but i have to REFUSE the urge to curl up in

a cozy ball  in my cozy bed all day.





I have 3 precious little gifts from HEAVEN that

are watching me.....

RELYING on me....

and most of all....

EXPECTING  Magical things to happen each day!




Afterall....

they only get the special wonder of
childhood ONCE!






a big smile when they walk in the room....

a tiny kiss on the forehead...
for no reason at all...

a song before bed...


our eye contact  while they talk...
our heads off

;)

 It's just the simple small things...

throw in a balloon once n a while




and there you have it!
Pure Magic!




Every new day holds an untold ADVENTURE....


The POSSIBILTIES are endless!



 

As SIMPLE or as Lavish as you please.


Don't let the years slip by.....


This very moment ~  that is all we have for sure.

Make it count.

and REMEMBER:


LIFE's An Hour Glass

The Little Ones Around You









I was once told .....

that a child won't likely remember all the lovely words
we told them.

BUT

they will remember that your eyes lit up
everytime they walked into the room!

Gone Mad??? Words to Live by





When Life gets so crazy....


that you begin to wonder....


Have I gone Mad?????


Well, Perhaps you have......




but i'll tell you a secret.

All The Best People Are!



*** You have to leave the city of your comfort and

go into the wilderness of your intuition. You cannot

 get there by bus, only by hard work, risking and by

 not quite knowing what you are doing. What you

 will discover will be wonderful; yourself. ***

Hope and Courage









Courage doesn't always roar.

Sometimes courage is the little voice

at the end of the day that says...

 I'll try again tomorrow.



                                                                                             
                                                                                                     Mary Anne Radmacher
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We don't always have to
get it right...
 
or be Perfect...
 
We just have to keep aiming
 
in the right direction
 
and celebrate each ....
 
 
 Tiny Victory !
 
                
We'll get there eventually...

Happy Campers & Words to Live by





A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes."


~  Hugh Downs











Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling.

~Margaret Lee Runbeck




*****
The proof is in the pudding though right?
I had to sell my dream home and am living in a hotel right now.  Yet even still ,  I have found myself  thinking...

"i am the luckiest girl in the World"....


I feel alive and well!
Happiness is one of the best choices i make!
