Thursdays Thought-Today You are You

I kind of have a thing for Dr. Seuss, and my thought today comes from the book, “Happy Birthday to You!”

This thought is perfect to frame and give to the birthday person to let them know just how special and unique they are!  

I love this saying and I hope that all of you out there know just how special YOU are!

School has not started yet in our neck of the woods, but this would also be a great saying to frame to give your child before school starts, or for the older kids, it would make a fun locker sign to hang in their locker!  Some children just need to be reminded how great they are when they have some anxiety about going to school!

This is formatted to an 8 x 10 print, for those that wish to frame it.

I hope that you all have a great day today and that you will all realize YOUR potential and that you will see the potential in all those around you too!

Happy Thursday Everyone!  Love Ya!

Here is a last minute thought for Father’s Day.

This would make a great little gift if you want to print it and put it in a fun frame! :)

I totally feel this way about my dad and I appreciate all that he has done for me!  He is a great example for me and ever since my mom passed away, I have been able to spend more time with him and I just enjoy being around him. I love that I can still call him for any gardening help or handyman needs!  Thanks, Dad, for all you do for my family!  We all love you!

I also have to say that my husband is a great example of this in our own children.  He has always been their biggest supporter, whether in sports, business or family life.  They all still call their dad for advice and help and I am so grateful that he has this kind of relationship with all of his children!

Thanks honey, I think that you are the greatest!

Thursday’s Thought-If You Have a Garden…

I have had today’s thought in my office on a magnet board for a couple of years now, so I guess that I would have to say that it is one of my favorite thoughts!  I love that all we need is to feed the body and the soul.  So basic, yet so true!

I do not know who the author is so if anyone out there knows,  please let me know so that I can give credit to the author!

Thursday’s Thought-I Can Do Hard Things

I was having a frustrating day last Friday and I was in a hurry and everything was going wrong.  The faster I tried to go the more frustrated I got.  I was driving on the freeway and people were cutting me off or pulling in front of me and slowing down,  I was becoming a nervous wreck.  I finally just said to myself…this is ridiculous,  you are getting frustrated over petty little things.  What if you had some real problems to worry about!  It was a good wake up call to myself!  There are bad things going on all around us, but yet there are so many more good things, if we will just keep our focus on the positive.

Then on Sunday at church we had a lesson on trials and there were a lot of different comments about how we handle our trials.  There are several ladies in our neighborhood that are going through some pretty tough trials right now and one of them made the comment about how she had this saying right by her bed and one day her daughter came in when she was having a teary moment and through her tears, she said to her daughter that she could not do hard things.  Her daughter replied, “Yes you can, they may just be through some tears, but you can do hard things, mom.”  That really touched my heart and I have thought about that many times this week.

It is all in our attitude!

So my thought for this week is the saying that my neighbor has by her bed:

Thoughts-3-000-Page-1

I need to print this out and frame it so I can have a good reminder!   I have so many great examples all of around me of people that are doing hard things.  I am so proud of them and I appreciate their strength and examples.

If you would like to print this, right click over image and go to “save image as”  then save in a folder.  It is formatted for an 8 x 10 picture.  You can send it to your favorite photo processing center or print your own!

I think that I will look for a fun frame to put this one in!

Have a great day today and remember that

You Can Do Hard Things!  Love Ya!

Thursday’s Thought-Though No One Can Go Back…

I went out and took some pictures of my neighbor’s pansies yesterday morning after coming home from my morning walk.  They were just so pretty and caught my eye, that I decided to use one of the pictures for today’s thought!

I hope that you can enjoy them as much as I do!
