Adison is home with a concussion today.  I considered being very upset as I thought about all the things I need to do at work.  But then I remembered...I'm learning to ask for help when I need it, breathe when I feel stress setting in and remember that I only have a few short years to hold them when they are sick or sad.  I'm doing it!!!  I'm proud of myself for recognizing the need and doing it!!  I was NOT raised to do this or believe this was important. Thankfully, I have a sister, who is my best friend, to give me what we call, "A Coming to Jesus Talk"  when I need it!  Everything happens for a reason and on the very day last week when I thought I couldn't go on another step in several areas of my life, she gave me that talk.  As a result, I am on my second full week of healthy eating, exercise, taking time for myself most days, and feeling truly happy!  To many, this may sound like a small step, or even sound ridiculous to need.  But I believe I'm not the only one who needs this out there!
