“Celebrate the happiness that
friends are always giving,
make every day a holiday
and celebrate just living!”
Amanda Bradley

My children spent their formative years
attending Ground hog day
prognostications, only now, have I come to realize
the full effect this has had on their
view of life

They believe that
Groundhog day is a major holiday.

They are surprised that in their new
community, people barely mentioned it
and that some people don’t even realize that it is Groundhog day.

In our home, Groundhog day,
is an early morning and a pancake breakfast,
a simple celebration that replaces the many
years of getting up early, getting them bundled up,
and driving to see the Groundhog.
My kids have fond remembrances of those times.

Here’s what I remember…

Trying to figure out the when things actually happened at
the event.Trying to get organized
enough to get all the outdoor clothing, getting up and out the door in time to be there and then get back to school
and work.I remember bad coffee and cold pancakes, and at least
once – one of the kids throwing up in car on the way home.

Despite all of the hassles involved in
going, my kids remember being a part of something
special
“Celebrate what you want to
see more of”. Thomas J. Peters

I learned that celebrative moments in life are not ones that involve huge
undertakings, presents, or great expense.
They are the consistent moments that take us out
of the mundane of our every day and help us to know that every day we
should celebrate the simple things:

being together; hoping for
Spring; the beauty
of a morning; the joy
of each day.

“When you realize how
perfect everything is you will tilt
your head back and laugh
at the sky.” Buddha
