Just call me Susie Sunshine :)

I have been accused of worse things than finding the positive in a situation.  No matter how bad, there's always something to look at in a different way.  Sometimes it takes me longer than others, days even, to find that positive in a situation, but I can usually do it.  Actually, I don't think I find the positive as often as God shows it to me.  This past weekend is a great example of that.  With everything that is going on in my life and the roller coaster I seem to be on every day between my children and my ex-husband, I have found a silver lining. 

I also read something that caught my attention and made me stop and think.  Cindy, Super Ty's Mom, said, "All I can do is channel all of my energy into prayers for healing and strength.  It helps me get through all of my moments of anger and frustration."  She's right.  I can't look at the giant picture and worry about everything all at once.  I can only deal with one piece at a time, so today, I'm going to handle what comes at me today.  I am going to continue to put one foot in front of the other and take one day at a time.  I will get through this because I am a strong, faith filled woman and with God as my guide, I can get through anything.  Thank you for reminding me to rely on God first and foremost Cindy.  I needed that.

I pray for peace within my family and for strength to handle the everyday challenges of being a single mother, but now, I also need the wisdom to handle the frustrations of all three of my children as we move forward through the next couple of months and the changes that are about to occur in their lives.  God give me strenght, wisdom and understanding to help them, comfort them and love them through it all.
