It's A New Day

Every morning my baby girl Gracie opens her eyes, smiles that big smile, and looks around like she is seeing her surroundings again for the first time. She kicks her legs, flaps her arms, looks around wide eyed, and smiles and smiles. What an amazing way to start the day! I remember this from when Jonah was little as well. Babies love mornings. Everyday is the start of an amazing new day of learning, discovery, and fun.

Wouldn't our lives be so much better if we all started our day with that same excitement for what's to come. Of course I realize that our days are not filled with endless warm milk, naps, and a smile around every corner. Regardless you have a choice everyday as to whether to put a smile on your face and make the most of what life throws you good or bad. Life is one big obstacle after another, but how you choose to wake up and face those obstacles is what sets the tone for your whole life and the life of those around you. It's a new day. Kick your legs, flap your arms, look around you, and smile!
