The Heartwarming Story of Taylor Morris

I received this email from my mother-in-law today and it truly touched my heart.  I take so many things for granted each day and these images were a powerful reminder that everyone has a choice to make - choose to be happy or choose to be sad.  It is obvious that Taylor Morris has chosen to be happy in spite of all of the challenges he has faced.  It also reminded me what a huge impact we can make on each other's lives.  Taylor's girlfriend, Danyelle, is an amazing woman with a huge heart and positive spirit that drives them both forward.

I am so thankful for soldiers like Taylor who risk their lives to keep us safe.  A heartfelt thank you to all of our servicemen and women. 

Need a Little Joy?

Everyday I wake up to the something negative that haunts me throughout the day.  It might be something silly like a broken dishwasher but I have let this negative energy take a toll on my health for way too. 

Today, I decided to make a change and start this blog to highlight something positive and uplifting that I have encountered, rather than the 100 little things that are meaningless, yet bring me down.

I am calling this blog " A Little Slice of Joy" because we all have joy in our lives but sometimes we need it served up on a platter to remind us that it is there.  I have decided to make a point to serve up a little slice everyday in the hopes that it brightens my day and yours.  I hope you enjoy!
