Today I was sicker than a dog. I stayed in bed and slept almost all day. For some reason, I got the crazy idea that going to a "Family Home Evening" activity would be a good idea. Here, we get put into groups and we are called a "Family" and every Monday we do stuff together and have a little inspiring message. It's really a brilliant idea. I love it. I was called to be the "Mom" so... I felt a sense of duty.
Our activity was Ice Skating. We went to a random house a town over and they had this awesome rink just on the side of their house! They even have skates you can use! It was amazing and they didn't charge a cent. It was pretty cool. Anyway, There was just seven of us and the boys decided to play some hockey. Fearing that I might lose a precious tooth, I was a bit hesitant. But after a couple seconds of deliberation and a great deal of persuasion I joined. By golly, it was so fun! I probably looked like an idiot but I legitimately had fun.
The miracle today was that I laughed. I mean, actually laughed. Usually I force it just to be nice but today I was happy. Even for just an hour. That was nice. What a miracle!
"I always knew looking back on the tears would make me laugh, but I never knew looking back on the laughs would make me cry."
-Dr. Seuss
