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. Someday I want to learn to tat lace. I had a great aunt that used to tat but I never paid any attention when I was younger and now it is too late. And since nobody was interested in her hobbies and she had no children all her stuff got given away. That makes me sad.
2. I dislike most traditional flowery smells. I prefer citrus and spicy scents instead. Over powering floral stuff gives me a huge headache and makes me very crabby.
3. I am the only one in the house that can make a paper airplane that actually flies.

I'm right there with you on the flowery smells. I take it one step further though...I can't do spicy or cinnamon smells either. BIG HEADACHE! I can only do light fragrances like vanilla which is my favorite.
My favorites are any that make my house smell like either I just cleaned it or I just baked something. Cucumber melon, vanilla, pumpkin spice, cranberries...
