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. There is something about the birthday song that makes my kids cry when it is sung to them around 2 and 3. All of them have cried then, it is very odd.
2. I only had one real birthday party when I was little, usually I invited one or two friends over and we did something special. I guess that is why I have carried that on to my kids.
3. And ACK!!! Brit turned 15 this week, when the heck did that happen? I don't think I am older enough for this....
