INSPIRATION MONDAY: QUOTE OF THE WEEK + THE CUMBERLAND RIVER

 "Be in love with your life. 
Every minute of it."   - Jack Kerouak 1922-1969

 Loving life is a piece of cake, but loving every minute of it can be quite a challenge. Life throws a variety of moments in our lives. Some that are truly amazing and some that almost seem to knock you down. At the end of the day it all comes down to staying positive and focusing on everything that's beautiful in our lives. Take time to do the things you love and give thanks for your blessings and your hardships. Life is to short to be picky, lets savor every minute of it!

My family and I are huge fans of PBS Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood and all that it has to offer. Our daughter Serenity has watched every episode and memorized most of the songs. She ultimately asks to replay this show about 20 times a day and runs around singing the potty song nonstop, its hilarious! In our home we strictly limit the amount of television Serenity can watch. So whenever she is allowed to spend some TV time Daniel Tiger is usually one of her top picks. Daniel Tiger has worked wonders on our little one, breaking down essential life lessons that us parents try to teach and reinforce on a daily basis. We are very excited for Neighbor Day, it will be a fun day filled with songs,important lessons and activities! If your trying to teach your children that its nice to do good things for others,what a better way to reinforce this important life lesson than this Labor Day Monday with Daniel Tiger and friends. You can find fun activities to go along with the new episode here.
