We know that there's a lot of bad in the world today. So The Hawk Morning Show has brought back "Good News Monday." My Good News comes from raking leaves on Sunday afternoon....Yes, raking leaves.

After church and before Tara's soccer game, we decided to rake because the weather doesn't look like it's going to get any better any time soon. Tara actually gave us the idea (which I'm sure Devon and Riley loved) when she went out and just started doing the leaves herself.

So we headed out with our rescue dog, CJ. It was awesome raking with the kids and playing with the dog in the leaves....Okay the kids played with the dog in the leaves.  As any parent can tell you, we only have them with us for a short time, so enjoy, enjoy, enjoy it now.

I recently heard a saying that I've embraced. Rejoicing is the pathway to peace of mind. I rejoice in watching my kids grow and am so happy to be a part of their lives.

I've also embraced another saying that fits...and is funny. Someone who gives away their peace of mind by giving someone a piece of their mind.....is usually someone that can least afford to give away a piece of their mind.

That is my Good News Monday story. Feel free to use either (or both) sayings.
