Mum,
A little something I thought might make you smile. On my Facebook page today I saw a story from a science website that had the following picture and headline.
Diane's Positive Thoughts for the day
This little blog has been set up to be an archive of the daily positive thoughts that my wife Elizabeth and I are sending to my mum Diane from Arizona to the UK. It's a little something we can do from 6000 miles away to stay connected when we're far apart.

Twister
Love,
P, E and AToday's positive thought is this little picture of miss Aurora playing twister. At least, she appears to be giving it a go. :-)

Positive CBT
Mum,
Just a quick note to say I hope the CBT was good yesterday. It certainly seems like the first few have been helpful and we are right there with you supporting all the way. I'll be there to visit in just a few weeks.
If you get a chance, let us know how things went.
Lots of love
P, E and A

Quick quote
Mum,
Here's a quick quote on optimism.
The average pencil is seven inches long, with just a half-inch eraser - in case you thought optimism was dead.

Positive flight news
Mum,
Today's positive thought is this: I've booked flights to come over around the week of my birthday. I'm planning to spend some time in Gainsborough and some in Hereford. Can't wait to see you and everyone. I,ll give you exact dates this weekend over Skype.
Love
Paul

Some positive quotes from a legend
Here's my inspiration for today:
A couple of Bruce Springsteen quotes. The legend...
Pessimism and optimism are slammed up against each other in my records, the tension between them is where it's all at, it's what lights the fire.
Adult life is dealing with an enormous amount of questions that don't have answers. So I let the mystery settle into my music. I don't deny anything, I don't advocate anything, I just live with it.

I hope you enjoyed the Bruce cd I sent over a while ago too.
Lots of love,
P, E and A

Olympic positive thought
Mum,
I was thinking about the Winter Olympics today and came across this link. I'm not sure if it will show up on your email or the blog as a link you can click or not. If not, you can copy and paste into an internet browser or go to Wikipedia and search for creative visualization.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_visualization
Anyway, it's a tool a lot of Olympic athletes use to visualize things they want to happen and focus on how to get there. It's also used in a lot of positive thinking type programs. I'm not sure if the CBT does anything like this, but during the Olympics it came to mind.
Love you lots
Paul, Elizabeth and Aurora

Positive picture
Love,
P, E and AMum,
Just thought a good positive picture for you would be aurora using implements before her first birthday.
She's very good with a spoon or fork now. She can sometimes put a piece of food on it and eat it all in one go. Clever girl!
