I love color, and love to use it, wear it, see it. I love spring for all the color it puts back into the world. It makes me more than tired to see the gray of winter one more day. Life is good today, nice and warm and colorful.

I am so grateful for my kids, job, monday night group, and friends...lots and lots of friends. How else could I find anything wonderful about this past year of my life with or without color. It is funny how the almighty decides to add the color and how that makes me smile. Today after a few hiccups at work, I was seated next to an interesting person at the hair zone...he mentioned a few aspects of his life that made me realize that although my life in the last year has been way too colorful...it can always be worse. I also was so blessed today to spend a few hours with 4 of my 5 colorful kids...and the love and happiness I feel when in the same room with them is always like spring again.

I won't say anything condescending like everyone should be happy...but I am grateful for those moments when I can feel and see and hear that life just aint that bad...in fact it's downright awesome...no matter the colors!!!
