Why can’t life always be so grand?

You have heard of the phrase why not when life hands you a lemon, make lemonade, right? Well, my 3 year old will be a big four on Monday, but while on vacation, she wasn't going to let the fact that it was raining spoil her fun! She made her own fun and why can't we all?

You see life is always throwing things at us, a flat tire, a down market, bad neighbors, sick, whatever it may be. So, why not turn those in to a positive and do something fun, and live life like no one else is watching, as you can see from the picture, my daughter was.

It is so refreshing to look at life through a child's eyes.

I love lemonade! This is one of the greatest sayings that man has invented. One way to look at it is this: If things get hard, it is just a way to weed out those of us who aren't serious about this profession!

She is a cutie pie! I remember my first umbrella -- girls think they are pretty cool for some reason!
