The Up-side of things

It seems like I am always sweeping up Cheerios from our kitchen floor. The Up-side? It's mindless work, I never have to wonder if I've covered an area, if it's Cheerio-free, it's been swept---if not, it hasn't.

I only have one eye. The Up-side? I only have to buy 12 contacts a year---not 24. What a savings!

Kyle gets up around 5am every morning. The Up-side? I love the feeling that I get when I crawl into bed. I get to do that at least TWICE a day!

  3. Miss Jackie-what a delight to see all the wonderful things going on in your life. Your babies are adorable! I always knew you were a strong woman and I admire your courage to undertake the lengthy process of surgery at the same time as being a busy mom. Isn't it beautiful that you can have this new eye at all. My love, prayers and admiration. Thanks for sharing. Viola

  4. Way to be positive. I need to think of the up-side of things more often. Thanks for the inspiration! Also, I would really love to come to the Utah State-BYU game. I will give you a call and hope I have a current phone #. :)
