Today is my moms last scheduled round of chemo! I am so excited for her. She is such a little trooper with such a positive attitude. We will re-scan everything when she is done and then take a little break for a while so she can regain her strength and maybe a little weight too!
I have always struggled with my attitude. When I was younger more so than now but I just am always thinking of the negative first. I think it is one of my biggest weaknesses. I wish I could be more like my mom and look at the glass half full. I am working on it though. Chris usually has a lot better attitude than I do. He can always see positive in things and just lets insignificant things roll on by, whereas I make a mole hill out of an ant hole. I gave a lesson in young women's the other day on Attitude to my girls and realized that the lesson was for me more than them. I made cute little quotes for each girl but made them all different. I put them upside down and told them all to pick one and joked that the one they got was specifically meant to be for them. Guess what I got? "The biggest disability in this life is a bad attitude." Another one surfaced on the table because one of my girls was gone so I got hers too. "If you cant change something, change the way you think about it!" So.... I guess that is the lesson for the week.
