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

As you may have hear on the news Denver got a lot of snow. I think the official total is 26 inches. In the undrifted areas we got 28 inches. So I thought I would do a TTT on some of the things we do on snow days.

1. We always walk to the grocery store. Not for milk and bread for good junk food, hot chocolate. My brother and I did it and I have continued it with our kids. Of course it takes forever because you have have snowball fights, make snow angels on the way.

2. Play board games. Loud laughing, you know the snorting kind of laughter.

3. And this sounds kind of strange but we usually end up taking a house wide nap. Everybody wakes up, we eat dinner and play boards games again.
