I have been laughing a lot already, and had a few interesting experiences to cause me to have to shift my bracelet.
I am blessed to have a son that is "focus-challenged" He needs reminders all day long, and due to his ripe age of 15.......... he feels the constant need to challenge many things, and or complain. If I choose to remind him that he is complaining.......... I'll be going down with him!
This could prove to be my greatest challenge in the Reformation. I will need God's help A LOT. I think God is up for it.
This morning, someone...... (AJM) did not close the Ziploc on the frozen blueberries, and I was the next one to take them out of the freezer.
Well, the entire bag splatted out all across the kitchen floor and into crevices in the freezer and under the fridge!!!!!!!It only took me a milli-second to respond, which gave me a fresh start with my Reformation. Lol!
I love blueberries!
We have been laughing at each other as a family, and are becoming keenly aware of our words.
For years now we have had a tradition. Whenever we celebrate a birthday in our home, whether it be family members, or friends, we always take time to tell the birthday person something that we really appreciate about them.
I decided that another part of our Reformation as a family is that whenever we are eating dinner together, at the end of the meal, we will tell each other 2 things that we really like or appreciate about one another. Last night was alot of fun! And smiles were on each face.

I miss you guys!!! Cheryl, if you were here, I would proudly show you that i have 8 tulips poking up in my garden!!! Not to mention giving you a big hug!
I love blueberries too. Yum!
I, too, have atleast one focus challenged child...my baby girl is trying to learn how to ride without training wheels...what fun when she won't keep her eyes on the road.. (but there's an airplane, and what about that bird..)
Anyways, I plan on picking up a bracelet of some sort, but it is going to be very hard for me being prego and all... all my negativity comes with vegeance during this stage..lol.. Thank goodness it's not elastics, I may not be able to move my wrists from all the welts..
Love you much.
Ohh its scary watching those independent focused challenged ones learning how to ride a bike. Thank God for angels!
I love you both so much too!
Hooray on the tulips Holly, mine are up now too, first time ever for me!
Hooray for doing the bracelet Amy! You are such a positive person in general. We have grace for any boo- boos............ and we have to just laugh at ourselves K?!
I squish you both with a big hug!
My baby is now 16 - time is flying. Matt called D a week before his birthday apolgizing for missing it....Matt always brings a smile.
I laughed about the blueberries while also thinking ....I'm glad it Cheryl's floor and not mine! Would this warrent moving a braclet!?!?
Holly, I also have some tulips sprouting - yes it's spring.
I had a taste of my chives last night...just a taste - yum!!
Things rolling across the floor, or filling the deep freeze without their containment...sounds familiar!
I love blueberries too! Since they are a SUPER FOOD, I get to eat them as often as I want! I love frozen ones (that haven't rolled on the floor) with a little all bran for breakfast!
The positive word at meal time sounds like a very good idea.
You Molenaars are awesome, and yes, I too miss you. Hubby's going to plan a visit though...eventually!
Oh no!! I am always paranoid about blueberry stains. My favorite is "TruBlue" blueberry juice from Wal-Mart. Here's another find that I haven't tried yet, but sounds intriging: BlueberrySoup!!

Well, Shari, spilling blueberries doesn't warrant moving my bracelet, but what I said after they spilled did!!!! lol
