So instead of pulling ornaments down they play with the bows at the bottom of the tree instead. Thought I would throw it out there..LOLOlivia's Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936080245711025547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-83992017297346316932009-12-17T00:54:03.963-07:002009-12-17T00:54:03.963-07:00I was going to state pretty much what Amanda did. ...I was going to state pretty much what Amanda did. Good job girl ;-}<br /><br />Like your now newest posting, the tree too is all in your perception. Why is it that the right perception is often such a hard thing to keep in focus? With the cookies, how you 'percieve' them really isin't that important. But yet the tree is. Why? Because the reason it is the way it is is due to the children, and their antics, and the demands they put on us, etc.. And all of that combined can just wear a person down/out. <br /><br />But lots of areas of life are that way. Thus the reason it is SO-O important to keep adjusting our focus. We need to make sure we visit our Lord the octomotrist often for focus adjustments.<br /><br />Can ya tell I'm dealing with some focus issues of my own? o:-) Praise the Lord He is there for us!!!Cheryl B.http://www.xanga.com/thehousethatlovebuiltnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-86638745783733562042009-12-16T11:51:29.223-07:002009-12-16T11:51:29.223-07:00Amanda, that made me laugh!
