I think I've seen joy.
What do you think? Does this capture joy? Because I love it.
{my Brennan when he was four}
That heart change created many joyful {faces} moments.
I think my family needed the reminder as well.
So, today, I'm going to try my joyful yes challenge again. After all, playing Parcheesi at 8:25 in the morning is just plain fun -- even though I came in dead last. Or making a smoothie the first time they ask versus in the in a minute time was a blast. Or reading the same Harold and the Purple Crayon and belly laughing. Those moments all came from saying yes.

Samuel is doing excellent this week.
No weight gained, but no weight loss.
The big difference is the massive increase in energy.

A joyful yes...still working on that. I need to simply I realize so that I make time for the yes and reduce the no. So glad to hear that Samuel is doing better and no weight loss. I will continue to pray for the little guy. I will also be linking up on Friday.

I love how happy he looks - great shot! :)
Beautiful capture of joy! I am so thankful to hear how well Samuel is doing. And since I didn't get to your blog until late last night, I will implement the "yes"s into my day today! Love you my friend!
Oh that is precious! :)
What JOY! Love the picture and so glad to hear that Samuel continues to do well. Yeah...for more energy and stable weight. :)
Much love,
Stacy
I applied your "yes" today to my own mothering. Amazing how it changes things!
When I catch myself saying "in a minute" just a little too often during the day, I wonder how many minutes I've given up with my loved ones - choosing instead to focus my energy on things that I only think are so important.
LOVE the picture of Brennan!
now that is some joy! hunter benefitted from my yes and enjoyed extra coloring time today. oh and i said yes to myself and ate a bowl of ice cream. : ) so thrilled to hear about samuel!
Another gluten free idea...heard it on Biggest Loser: larabar...they're gluten free energy bars.
Continuing to lift up prayers!
Psalms 91:1-2 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
