Life may not always be fun, sane, fair or even "like a box of chocolates" Sometimes you do know what you're going to get, and it's the same old thing! A crying child, a teenager struggling in school, a mad husband, a broken truck, an unfinished house and the list goes on and on...
And at that very moment...
Your once crying child, is now running naked through the house in nothing but a Cowboy hat. Making you laugh!

And your teenager that was once barely getting by in school,
is now getting almost all A's.
Making you both proud
and reminiscent of his first day of school.
And your husband that was once mad,
well he's still mad and now he's not speaking to you,
which sometimes is a blessing in disguise.
So you enjoy the silence.
And from a truck that was once broken,
has come an amazing sight
of a father and son bonding.
And as for the once unfinished house...
It's still unfinished and everyday is a memory of the time spent building it together! Remembering every minute to Thank God you have a house...
And in that very moment you realize...
Life may not be fun, sane, fair or even "like a box of chocolates"
but, My life...is good!!
I hope yours is too!
