thoughts on birth, motherhood, and life
"Goals are dreams with deadlines"
-Diana Scharf Hunt
Our worst 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 doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people premission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.- Marianne Williamson

god, I love this book. I bought it for my SIL last Christmas.
My fave goes something like this: "You know, we can get really good parking at the craft fair because the championship game is on TV."
yes - that's a good one...so good that I added it!
Hi there, Good bloggin'
Just found and flipped through this hilarious book at the bookstore last month... almost bought it... it made me laugh so hard! Thanks for sharing it here... I found your blog through Ami McKay's facebook - Cheers, Sally (mum of two sons - lucky to be keeping 'em close too)
Thanks for your note Sally - wow - your little corner of the world looks pretty idyllic...I will check in to see more of your lovely photos!
So Canada - can we show up on your doorstep someday if we become refugees? ;-)
My youngest son looks like she could be brothers with your kids.
