On Board

A close friend of mine (you know who you are) has taught me the importance of being "on board." Being ON BOARD means you're fully invested (a shout out to Cougar fans).

It means if you've got a newborn you know you're not going to get any sleep, not to mention a shower, so you sleep when the baby sleeps and realize a day without a shower is not the end of the world.

It means if you have to get up at five AM to take your daughter to dance, you do it and count the extra hours you're awake as bonus time.

It means if you're on Christmas break you don't worry about blogging.

So this Christmas break our family got completely on board. We stayed up late and slept in even later. We stayed in by the fire and ate out a lot. We had tons of fun here and loads of fun there.

And now that it's the New Year it means you're agreeable to early morning wake ups again.

It means you see the possibility in each new day so you embrace it fearlessly.

It means you realize you are blessed and make an effort each day to share your blessings.

2010 - I'm definitely on board!
