Talking in Parenthesis
Ramblings and angst from a mostly stay at home mom
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us. It is in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. -Nelson Mandela

Three Things Thursday
1. When I am really sick, I can't sleep. Everybody else in the world sleeps when they are sick but not me.
2. One of my favorite memories when I was little was my Dad bringing me Sesame Street finger puppets when I was sick. Do they even make finger puppets anymore?
3. One of the comfort foods my Mom used to make me when I was sick was what she called a Flapper Coke. Vanilla ice cream with Coke poured on it. To me that is what vanilla coke and pepsi taste like.

Comfort foods - my mom's is rice krispies, vanilla ice cream, and chocolate syrup. It really is pretty good. Hope everyone feels better soon!
