5 Sharp Lives: Feeling It Today

Feeling It Today

Get up

Live your life
Stop listening to your own excuses
Forget what happened yesterday
Start fresh today and do the things you do that make you you and make you great
They say there is no hope for you
You don’t have a chance
What’s your hate and anger doing for you
Where is it taking you
Maybe someone else just might know what they are talking about
The blood that runs through your veins doesn’t hold your destiny
You do
Only You
What makes you great
What strives in your mind
What thoughts do you waste
Stop blaming this world, your place
Where are your gifts
What do you have to offer this world
How are you making it better
Try
Fail
And get up stronger
Succeed
Why do you think God chose you
To do what
Sweat
Cry
Reach for more
Get up and work for it

GET UP and WORK for IT

I have enough thought, motivation, determination, willingness, strength to conquer the world today. It feels good to have that feeling back.

It is so important to try even if you feel you might fail.

Love this, Tayarra! My favorite: "Try, Fail, Get up stronger." LOVE.

Also love "where are your gifts, what do you have to offer this world, how can you make it better."

Beautiful words and a beautiful message on this Monday! I am feeling it today, too!! How are your evening workouts going so far?

Amen! Love T. Especially the part about asking yourself what your gifts are and what you have to offer. Why? for what? to be YOU. And that's all we can do. Be the best us. And you're inspiring others in the process.

Dale

This is Dale. My Dale. The one I have spent pretty close to half of my life with. I love him. He loves God, he is strong, he provides for us, he treats me well, he makes me laugh. He's tall, dark, of course handsome, has got nice broad shoulders and a really cute butt. He is quiet and it takes quite awhile to get him to warm up, but once he does he is the best friend anyone could have. He is a great dad and his boys are his soft spot. I love spending my life with him. He makes everything ok when things are hard and he is my calm in the midst of a storm ... most of the time. I.LOVE.HIM!

Wyatt

This is our hilarious, sweet, cuddly, 5 year old boy, Wy Wy. He likes things his way and on his time. He is the best big brother around these parts. He is known to say "I love you, Mommy" out of the clear blue sky at home and in public. It's the best and usually gets quite a few "awe's" in public. He has got an amazing talent for sports already and has an arm that will surprise you. We love him to death and he brings us so much joy. He can also tell a story with the best of them and repeat almost any line from Sandlot, I know not all of them need to be repeated. He will start acting out scenes to movies at the oddest of times, but is always good for a laugh. (Click on the picture for Wyatt's birth story.)

Waylon

This is our 3 year old Waylonator or Wayners as his daddy calls him or Nayners as I like to call him now. He is the chubby little guy that has completely stolen our hearts. He loves to run naked around the house. He learns a ton from his brother. He can repeat anything you say to him, and understand most of it. He loves to dance, slide, play outside, wrestle, and bite his big brother. We don't have to worry about him sticking up for himself. He's got that covered. He sleeps like a champ and always has. His cuddle side is coming out, but he teases you 1st. He makes my heart swell. He finally calls me mommy now and momma on occasion. I might even get some "mom's" in there. He is so different from his brother it is amazing. Watching these two form such a tight brotherly bond brings us such joy. They truly love and enjoy each other. Nothing makes us happier! (Click on the picture for Waylon's birth story.)

Weston

This little guy is Weston. He was born on 1/25/11, 6lbs 15oz 21in. He is tall. He is already getting close to outgrowing the bassinet because of his length. He eats a ton and keeps me stressed out about my milk supply. He LOVES his brothers! You won't hear a peep out of him if one of them is holding him. They love him too! He's starting to smile and be more awake. There's nothing better than new smiles on a new face. He sleeps well at night and doesn't take too many naps during the day. He's starting to like baths. One thing you can always find him doing is squirming! He's been like this since the first time I felt him in my belly. We love what he brings to our family.
