I have been thinking this week about gratitude and being thankful for the challenges we get to have in this life. Sometimes I have felt some trials were almost insurmountable and then prayer,faith and time corrects my flawed thinking and voila the problem is gone or changed. Luckily it changes me too. I get to learn patience ,humility and meekness in a way I would not have without a little (or a lot of) struggling. Everyone has hard things to deal with and I guess just being grateful for the opportunity to grow ( sometimes I think I've grown enough!) is what I need to shoot for. No one has a perfect life or one without some stress.I have always heard that if everyone put their problems in a pile you'd pick up yours again.Like Kanye says " That that don't kill me can only make me stronger" sing it to me sweet Mr. West.

We all love you because you are so loveable and loving-not to mention tolerant. I think that we all get tired of making lemonade....

Hi Brooke! I found your blog through Holly Frosts and just thought I'd say hi. It's fun to see what you're up to and see pics of your new(ish) Sloan! I never got to see her before you moved. Anyway, looks like things are going well. (Kanye is so wise isn't he?)
