A Tribute to My Friend, Amy

Today's post is in honor of my sweet friend, Amy, who was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia. Amy, we love you and are so happy that your first round of chemo worked its magic! You are beautifully strong, extremely intelligent, amazing person---so full of love and of life!

There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror and noticed she had 3 hairs on her head."Well,"she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today!"So she did ...and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had on 2 hairs on her head."Hmm," she said."I think I'll part my hair down the middle today."So she did...and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up and noticed that that she had only 1 hair on her head."Well," she said, "today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail." So she did ...and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up and noticed that there was not one single hair on her head."YEA!," she exclaimed."I dont have to fix my hair today!" They say that attitude is everything.Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass...it is about learning how to dance in the rain.
