Happiness is a choice!

Which one are you?

Which child are you in this picture?

My husband and I were team teaching and I asked one boy which one he would be and act it out.

I could stay there and they even had transportation for me to get back and for to the hospital. To tell you the truth, I was so afraid to take care of myself. My mind wasn’t as sharp and it seemed like such a big city for this bald headed girl, not comfortable with herself. My sweet husband
