Can't we all just get along.

It has been an interesting last couple of weeks. Between family fights and the everyday grind of life it's amazing that anyone talks with anyone. I can't wait for upcoming events to be over so that life can return to some sort of normalcy. Peyton will be blessed on Easter Sunday, which is going to be fine except now we need to explain to Kennedy why the Easter Bunny probably won't make it to our house until late in the afternoon. Then Brett's wedding is well...stressing everyone out. I know it will all work out and will be everything anyone ever wanted. Getting us to that point just might kill everyone. Everybody is walking on eggshells to please the Bride and Groom which is fine, it's their wedding. It's just called communication. Make a plan and stick with it. If you change your mind, no problem... let us know what the new plan is. Don't get pissed off because we question the plan. We just need to know what the plan is or why it changed. Every question or comment made is not a personal attack. Everybody all at once.....Deep breath in.....hold.....exhale. Repeat 10 times. Now don't we all feel better. Let's just remember our personality profiles and we can all get along better. I'm a D-type personality: direct, domineering, decisive. I can be flexible. Staci C-type personality: calculating, concise, cautious. Great! love you dear. The more info you give her the better she is. If you change your mind - fine. Give her more info. Brett D-type personality, see above. Amber I-type personality. Should be able to get along with anyone. Relax people and communicate with each other. We can all get along. I don't post this to be cruel or to piss anyone off. As a semi-outsider to all the fighting, it's just not worth it. I taught Sunday school two weeks ago and the lesson was about being friendly to each other. Yesterday's lesson was on being a peacemaker (it must mean we need a little peace in our life). To summarize the two lessons, swallow your pride and extend the olive branch. You can be right and still be civil. You don't need to be the weak one to show kindness. Blessed are the peacemakers. You can be entitled to your own opinions, but you are not entitled to make those whose opinion differs from yours to feel miserable. I know I'm not innocent and even get a little thrill on pushing the events, but really let's be adults.
