Attitude is Everything

We're mostly over our household sickness here. I got it the worst followed by Chris, Elise and Ava, who got away (thankfully) with only a runny nose for a day and a half. I'm having trouble with my pic storage so I've been less than enthusiastic about posting since I can't post the pics I want so here's a boring post...

So I've been thinking about everyday trials and challenges and am realizing how important our attitude towards these things is! I can be such a complainer or worse, a know-it-all. I tend to get annoyed easily and tend to think I know the best way to do things. (picture Chris nodding his head at this statement). I notice that when I try to be cheerful and have a good attitude and/or change my perception of something - things go much better, I'm happier and therefore, my kids and husband are happier too. You really can get through anything with the right attitude. Nothing new...nothing you've never heard before...just something I'll have to continually remind myself of.

I totally agree! I am exactly the same way.

So true, but it's hard to think positively when you're so sick! :(

Glad you're all feeling better.
