"Just a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down, in the most delightful way!"

On days when the weather is so cold and windy, when I wake up with a headache and have lots to do, I'm so grateful for the little things that motivate and cheer me up throughout the day. 


I absolutely love seeing Laura every Tuesday. Even when I am discouraged or sick, she manages to find some way to cheer me up and lift my heavy heart! I really loved starting my day laughing so hard I could barely breathe. Her love for honey just cracks me up. She rocks my socks. :)


My new body wash, scented pomegranate mango, definitely cheered me up! 
The smell is just so sweet and wonderful.


Eating lunch with Jasmine and Cassie was a blast!
 I loved making cheesy Ketchup jokes about catching up on life with one another---get it?? :)
I loved laughing with Jasmine about how funny parents can be sometimes.
I just love how excited we are to see one another.


Annie is such a sweet and talented girl. She is one of the girls in my unit and I have enjoyed getting to know her so much. Today, when no one else could come to the program I had planned, she was awesome enough to be the only one to go with me! I enjoyed hearing about when she was in high school and about her family. I love that we both like Asian Zing at Buffalo Wild Wings. I also loved that we were both wearing vests today :)
I'm so excited for her cause she's gonna be the best fitness instructor ever!


LJ shared his inspiring life with us. I liked that he referred to his alarm clock as his "opportunity clock." He does so much for student affairs and publicity at Butler. His smile and positivity is always so contagious. While he is so big and important around campus, I'm so glad he is willing to set aside the time to talk to us and share his life with us. 


These two girls made my day today! I got back to the hall and they surprised me with a clean hallway. The Halloween decorations were starting to fall down and since they knew I wasn't feeling my best today, they were sweet enough to clean it up for me! I am SO thankful for them!


I loved the unexpected email I received! Normally, emails mean business. But this one was such a surprise! I couldn't believe I had been chosen to receive the Theresa Weinberg Scholarship! 
I was SO shocked and honored! 
I loved that Hope, Olivia, Caroline, and Matty celebrated with me when they found out! 
Who would have thought? I would have never expected this and it is all by grace. Nothing that I deserve but all a gift, encouragement and motivation.


 I loved finding Rachael reading in the hallway...very creatively, I must say. She makes me laugh :)

By the end of the day, the last thing on my mind was the cold weather, my sickness, and how much I had to do. :) I love the little bits of sugar that made my bitter day SO much better!
