Look on the bright side

Don't you just love Eeyore?  When my boys were little I loved reading them the Winnie the Pooh stories. At the time I taught first grade and was very involve in chikdren's literature. Pooh and piglet and their enduring friendship taught good lessons to the kids. But we always laughed at Eeyore's pessimism. 

    During this gloomy cold weather we have to adopt Eeyore's philosophy. It could be worse.
