Finding Peace Today- Grayslake Family Photographer and Writer

These last couple of weeks have been a climax of change ending with today the last day of school. As all these changes started coming the last few weeks I really started noticing my thoughts and emotions.

My little guy lost his first tooth.  "There will be no more first lost tooth in this house...." Right after that thought came in I realized that it didn't serve me any good to stay there, I let it go.

"My oldest will no longer be in elementary school the new school is bigger and different."  Another thought that I had to just let go of.

Similar thoughts have looked around the corner for a couple weeks to see if I wasn't paying close attention.  I was paying close attention and I wouldn't allow them to turn the corner.  I didn't let these thoughts consume me and run away with me for hours on end as I had in the past.

I can see the direct link between my thoughts, emotions and my physical well being.  These emotions are exhausting, very heavy to carry when I surrender to them.

Instead I asked myself what do I really have to be sad about?  I couldn't find an answer to that question.  What can I find joy in?  The list was never ending.  This morning I woke up feeling so much lighter, joy filled and at peace.  

Happy last day of school!
