At first I chose a completely different pic for today's Random Picture BUT...After dinner tonight Elise, age 8, my adorable free spirit of a child sat down at the computer to play for a few minutes. My kids really enjoy the PAINT program and are always "drawing" pictures in it. They are all quite creative and I love looking at what their little imagination come up with. Tonight, after sitting for several minutes Elise was so excited and kept jumping up and down asking me to look at what she made on the computer. I was trying to clean up the dinner dishes and attend to the baby so initially I brushed her off. She pleaded with me to just take a quick look at her picture and I gave in. It made me smile from ear to ear to see this:
She had a rough evening and got her little finger slammed in the piano lid but still Life could not be better! :) My daughter is a glass half full kind of gal, she is ever the optimist but she tends to be incredibly emotional. She feels every emotion with every cell in her body. She is the happiest child when she is happy and the saddest when she is sad. It warmed my heart that despite the sadness she felt before dinner she still thought that Life could not be better.
The words "Life could not be better" are part of a song from a movie the kids like to watch called "Liken the Scriptures:Nephi and Laban" Part of the chorus says:
cause I choose the right down to the letter..."
Maybe that's why she drew herself running through a field of green with a big smile on her face?!
