Our younger daughter and I headed out to Harrison Hot Springs the other day. It was a chance to have some time on our own; drive and chat and enjoy each others company. She talks much less than our older daughter; I am always surprised and enjoy how quiet it sometimes is, when we are together. We had a lovely stress-free time but on the way home found ourselves in the midst of holiday traffic.

Our ten year old turned to me and said " I don't want to be one of those people who, if life gives them lemons, they make lemonade. I want to trade my lemons for apples, and make apple juice!" Out of the mouths of babes....
