This is a photo taken right after Dean and I were married.

That anniversary date is today.

We had planned to take the kids out west in 2015 and show them some of the things we did this wedding week, and add a few more memories.

It is good to plan. It is good to have goals. Boys and I are still talking about taking a decent vacation with the family right around that time.

Make your memories TODAY. Don’t put some arbitrary date on when you will be happy, and what you need to be happy. How much time, how many dollars, what kind of house or car, how old the children, how many pounds the scale says… on, and on, and on. 

Today I will be happy.
Today I will give hugs and be willing to receive them.
Today I will smile.
Today if I have to I will “fake it till I make it.”
Today I will be me.
Today I will do my best.
Today I will live for today knowing tomorrow will be today soon enough.
