I thought since I have never really posted to this site that I would start with a quote that is on our fridge that we look at everyday. Its what we believe in as a family. Not sure acutually who it came from, but enjoy:
"The longer I live the more I realize the impact on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedeness or skill. It will make or break a company, a church...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how i react to it. And so it is with you.... we are in charge of our attitudes."

This was one of the first weekend in a long time that was just a weekend to be. ....To be with my 2 girls. To not be on my phone(well except for the Duck game). To not drive 500 miles + in 4 days. To not be on the computer/internet until now.We wonder where September and October went? I don't know. It was amazing to see how crazy they change in such little time and how advanced they have become. They bring so much joy into each and everyday. Here is to Sofia and Kirra. To always follow the dreams in your heart- Salute
