Serenity Now: Up

Up

I have never actually watched the movie "Up" all the way through. But after my experience this morning with one of my boys I now know who the creators of Up based their dog character on - my son.

As we walked to the bus stop this morning and I spoke (lectured) to him about how to be safe and respectful he suddenly pointed and shouted, "squirrel!".

If I hadn't seen it in "Up" I probably would have been irritated but having seen the absurdity of it in the movie I actually had to turn my head to hide my smile and bite my lip to stop from laughing.

And where were we? Oh right... back to the lecture.

Robin's Rules

An old friend of mine called into question why the name robinsrules in my html (actually he called me a geek). I suppose I should explain. He read it as Robin rules versus Robin's rules and I merely omitted the apostrophe when creating the html. There are certain rules that make me happy like ...

1. keep my husband close by because he makes me laugh even when I don't feel like it, ( and if he can't - call my sisters)

2. pay attention to nature because it helps me be peaceful,

3. always remember to pray and be grateful because then I'm nicer to my kids (and they'll thank me for it!)

4. take lots of pictures of my boys because when I look at their pictures I more easily forgive them when they break the t.v., take pizza from the fridge in the middle of the night, punch or bite each other, or hide chocolate bars and other candy under the couches to eat later - true stories - Serenity now.
