"You can't just quit life! Sometimes you just have to work through things!"
How true, how true. I immediately informed her that I would be reminding her of this sage advice frequently. :)
The hilarious sidenote to this is the context in which she came to this conclusion. We were talking about our hot tub. It has been exhibiting sub-par performance since we inherited it. I mortified the kids when I said, "I'd be fine to just get rid of it." A chorus of "NO's" sounded from the backseat. And then Sarah's insightful comment was made. In regards to hot tub. A leaky hot tub. Oh, yes, you can't just quit life, and apparently you can't quit hot tubs either. I think I'll have this quote made in to one of the darling printables with a clip art picture of a hot tub on it and frame it in our home. Truly, words to live by!

I like how she speaks as though the hot tub is part of your family. In fairness, if I had a hot tub, I would treat it the same way.
Love this story! And you should definitely get it printed with the hot tub pic.
Sarah is a wise old sage; I mean...she almost 16 years old, afterall!
Kim, you are a beautiful example to me of this "not quitting life" principle in action. Love you for it!
That's too funny! Love it!
Love the quote, love the back story.
Kind of makes you question the circumstances of other great quotes in history doesn't it?
My brother Kay repairs Hot Tubs for a living. He might know how to fix it for you. Give me a call if interested. Afterall you can't just quit on life.
