Here I Am!

Hello world. Here I am! Whooo-hooo, right?

Welcome to my blog! I've decided that after a tumultous 2008, I need to start focusing on the positive and forgetting about the negative--if only for a few minutes a day. Thus, my blog will feature a "picture(s) of the day". These will be photos that I have taken over the years and either bring a smile to my face or touch my heart in some simple way. I thought it would be fun to share them with my family, friends and whoever else might need a light-hearted moment for the day. I hope that you will put me in your "favorites" and check back regularly.

This is such a new forum to me, but I am intrigued how one person can make a difference, via the world wide web. I don't expect to solve world peace, but if anything, I hope this will give me inner peace. So much sadness and anxiety has touched my family this year. I've had some sort of epiphany in the last week or so and that is, I can't control the future, I can't worry about the past, but I can enjoy the moment and try to find something good about each day. I hope that you will be able to do the same.

My children are happy (for the most part, however we still have our crabby moments), healthy, and my husband is still gainfully employed! In this day and age, that's a huge thing! So for my first picture of the day, it is of Alex and Cameron. Albeit, this photo was taken almost 14 years ago, but it seems like the appropriate picture for my world wide web entrance.
