Need a pick me up?

Hi ladies! I've been seeing a lot of inspirational and heartwarming stuff going around facebook and such lately, and I thought it might be neat to start a "Pick Me Up" thread. Somewhere we can drop by during those, "Why Me!?!?! " & "AAAArrrrgggh!!!" moments we all get sometimes.



A good friend of mine shared this one on Facebook recently about a truly inspirational man whom she had the pleasure of meeting. I cried both times I watched it ...but it was the good kind of tears. Suddenly my frustrations about changing two dirty diapers, feeding two bellies, and unloading the dishwasher before I could finally have my first cup of coffee seemed so small...

I've seen that before, but it was definitely a great reminder! It's so easy to get caught up in our little worries. Thanks for the uplift!

I couldn't watch it, it said it was unavailable?

Katrina I'm sorry you're having a hard day today sweetie! (((hugs)))

I'll try to find a feel good story to link to, I saw one yesterday on CNN but I can't find the link. I'll keep looking.
