As I sit here (on the couch, in the living room, facing the
wall of windows, looking east) I am watching yet ANOTHER gorgeous ‘Lion King’
sunrise!
Why do I mention this? Well, for one, it’s SPECTACULAR and I wish you could see
it. More importantly though for
some reason, I am taking particular note of what the sun coming up each and
every day SYMBOLYZES for me.
A fresh new start.
Yep, a chance to begin again, right a wrong, try a different
way and TWEAK!
Okay, what’s ‘tweak’……………..This is a VERY well used word
around my house. Tweaking is
another (funner) way of saying adjusting. So, for example, when something (a schedule, a
sleeping arrangement, the flow in the pantry, driving/picking up from school,
etc) is not going well (kids are cranky, parents are tired, it just doesn’t
‘feel right’), the first thing I do is see how the situation can be
tweaked.
So for instance, recently, Jesse and I decided to move Bette
out of our bedroom (we converted the walk in closet into her bedroom when we
moved in a year ago) because our bedroom had become like Grand Central Station (too
much noise, activity, fussiness, etc).
and – post tweak – it’s more like a sanctuary.
So I encourage you to TWEAK AWAY, my friends!
