One Really Expensive Haircut...

Well, I decided to take a trip down to the Bay Area to see my parents and get my hair done before the baby comes. I hadn't had my hair cut since August and I gotta say, I felt like a million bucks leaving the salon. Here, James and I pose with our hair do's. However, it turned out to be a really expensive haircut when I went to leave and pack up the car and saw my bumper. Someone had hit it and just drove away while it was parked. Nobody left a note or anything. At first I started to get upset, and then realized that was the wrong kind of attitude to have. I realized I need to be thankful to God for his many blessings, and the fact that it wasn't a bad accident while James and I were driving. If ever in life I get upset about something, I can always think of my many gifts and blessings from God and realize that what looks like something terrible is really no big deal at all. Thanks again God, for giving me the perspective to see that I have so much to be thankful for. My family is happy, healthy, and together. There really is nothing else more important than that. By the way, thank you to Tony who always amazes me with his laid back, "Are you and James okay?" Me, "Yes." "Then it's no big deal." attitude. You help give me the right perspective in life as well! Love you.
