Life has a way of not doing what I expected it to. Don't get me wrong, I love the way it's going, I just always seem to be trying to get ready for the next adventure that I didn't expect 10 years ago. Hmm, maybe I just need to give up those expectations and move on to the now.
The now consists of being a mother to two young boys, wife to an Air Force husband and full time culinary arts student.
And right now the count down is on.....
counting down until the day when my husband leaves to go fight the war on the other side of the world.....
counting down until I'm a full time single mom.....
counting down until I have to have to figure out all the details and complications of life on my own.....
This is not a count down that I'm very excited about. But I'm trying to stay in the now and be positive so that's where the name of this blog comes into play. One Ryan's favorite songs is "3 Birds" by Bob Marley.
"Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Singin': Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!"
Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', This is my message to you-ou-ou
Singin': Don't worry 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Singin': Don't worry 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!"
Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', This is my message to you-ou-ou:"
Singin': Don't worry about a thing, worry about a thing, oh!
Every little thing gonna be all right. Don't worry!
Singin': Don't worry about a thing" - I won't worry!
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right."
Singin': Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right - I won't worry!
Singin': Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Singin': Don't worry about a thing, oh no!
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!
So everyday I'm going to try to get up and Smile with the Rising Sun.
