I got the most amazing perspective adjustment tonight from my sweet 4 year old Alyse! As I am in the final week of the semester and Stress Stress Stress is what I am experiencing, having her sweet, honest, loving attitude was more than needed tonight.
Earlier today we had a conversation about being grateful. Tonight as I was rushing to get her to lay down so I could go back in my office and finish a term paper I have been working on ALL day, she said "When we are glad for things it makes our hearts happy, right mom?" I said "yes, when we are grateful" and she said "you know what makes my heart happy?" I said "what" with a hurry up and lay down attitude and she said "you, I am glad for you and that makes my heart happy." Time stopped for a few minutes while I hugged and loved my sweet hearted girl! She teaches me more than I will ever teach her! I love her more than I can even verbalize!
