All of us get constructive criticism once and a while. Lately it seems I have lots of it coming my way. I am so thankful for one particular email I received this week that really made me think.

It has given me lots of ideas on sharing the highs of my life as well. So here it goes. Changing it up.
Some days are still going to be hard, and I am going to share tools on how we can overcome them, but somedays I am just going to share the joys.
