attitudes change like weather.....

COLORADO (from our amazing family road trip)
Isn't funny how fast the weather can change? Earlier this week I was starting to get spring fever because it seemed to be so much warmer even thought it was only 44 degrees. Now today it is a blustery 19 with the windchill :/

It reminds me how quickly my attitude changes. Some days it changes in minutes other times it takes hours and days. I have enjoyed that part of me this week. I have been to lowest of lows to high and down again. Don't get me wrong there are some days that I even say to myself ENOUGH already make up your mind. Today though I am LOVING this about ME! I am also greatful that those closest to me can deal with it or at least put up a good front. :)

I have noticed this in my kids and it something I enjoy in them. This morning Ramsey was crying at 6:50 because Bryce punched him over a move he did on the PlayStation game. On the way up the stairs I said Bryce why is your brother crying, Bryce says "cause I punched him" I say, "Bryce why are you punching this early in the morning" he replies with scrunched eyebrows "cause Ramsey did something to mess up my play"
Then as Ramsey is approaching the top of the stairs still crying I said "Ramsey did Bryce hit you? " Pouting mouth and pushed out lip he says "yes". I said to both boys its probably not a good idea to be playing such an intense game this early in the morning. Bryce turned around and stomped off to get ready. Ramsey stood behind still pouting. Then I asked him if the tooth fairy was able to make it to his room last night and his eyes lit up and he had the biggest smile ever and said "YES!" she left me two dollars!!! :)

See its just a matter of saying the right thing at the right time and being able to hear it as it is given! This is one of the reasons I feel so blessed, I surround myself with people that are there and willing to say whats needing to be said. The weather changes its mind constantly and some day it chooses to stay consistent! The weather here in Virginia is one of the reasons I love this state! So enjoy your ever changing moods and weather!! I will also apologize ahead of times if you have had to deal with more of my lows then highs.(sorry hubby I know you take the brunt)

p.s. I am really hoping for some serious SNOW from the supposed storm coming in on Tuesday! :)

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
