Another Good Deed
My husband and I went to the grocery store the other day. As we were waiting in line, a clerk signaled us over, saying he would check us out. As we were doing that, we asked him about the name change of the grocery store. He said he had bought it last year and changed the name. We congratulated him and then he asked us if we were from the area. We said yes but that we were away to law school for now. He said his brother was a lawyer and he happens to practice in the area we are seriously considering moving to when we're done. When we told him that, he got out a piece of paper, wrote his brothers name, firm, phone number, and his own name down, and handed it to my husband. He said to give him a call to see if he could help us in any way. Wow! Talk about being in the right place at the right time and showing kindness to others. I think that is a very good deed this man did for us. Thank you Mike!

Clarification
I don't think uplifting is the word I wanted necessarily. What I'm going for is a blog that makes your day, makes you laugh, makes you smile. It doesn't have to be positive, too sugary, all the time. Just one you enjoy reading, and think others might too. The good, the bad, and the ugly, all mixed in one. :)

Honesty
Honesty is such an important part of life. We are taught to always be honest in our dealings with our fellow man, with ourselves, with our significant others, etc. I am more aware of it today than ever because I was unfortunately on the receiving end of someone who was not honest with me. It has only made me stronger in my convictions and in the belief that honesty is the best policy, no matter how hard it can be.

A True Example

This story still completely touches my heart. How amazing! It is interesting to watch this from beginning to end because of the change of attitude in everybody's faces. Before she starts singing, she is being mocked and laughed at. After, the complete opposite, everyone is on her side, excited for her, cheering for her. It is a true lesson in how we as a society are so quick to judge. This lady is a true example in not judging a book by its cover. My heart is touched everytime I watch the clip.

Please take a few minutes to watch this. It is so touching. It is such a good lesson on how we shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I was very moved.

The Beautiful South
We have been in Augusta, GA this week visiting my father-in-law and his wife for Spring Break. This is where The Masters Tournament is held. Coming from a strong golf loving family, it has been neat to see where it is held. In fact, it starts very soon so they are preparing the city for it. Georgia is a very beautiful state. So green and lush. We have really enjoyed our stay.
We also visited Beaufort, SC and Hunting Island. We had a great time at the beach, except for the 30 mph wind. The kids loved to wade in the ocean and find seashells. Coming from the Midwest, they don't get to do that very often. :)

Correction
Whoops, I made a mistake about the name of the Million Snuggie Snug. I had it as the Million Dollar Snuggie Snug. While of course they'd love to raise that, it isn't part of the name. Also, here is the link to the group on facebook. Go join!

A Good Friend
I have to give a shout-out to my daughter Elise...
Her school is doing a fundraiser so she took her packet to a party at our local church and was trying to sell there. One of her friends was there and when Elise realized her friend hadn't sold one thing, she put her packet down, and helped her friend find people to sell to. I thought that was really cool for a 10 year old girl to do.
Good Job Elise!!!
