Good Things To Remember

People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel!
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. You have to agree that you are 'less' and that someone else is 'more' to feel inferior. If you don't agree, you cannot possibly feel inferior. You might know something less, or you might be able to do something less, but you ARE unique and hence simply incomparable.... Do not buy into being reduced to an object of comparison."

"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 brillant, gorgeous, talented, 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 all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

Quilting with Grandma

One Friday when Ryan was working a night shift, my mom came up and we tied a blanket for the baby. It is a really soft pink, blue, yellow and green flannel. She is now going to crochet around the edges to finish it off. For Christmas Ryan's mom also made a cute pink blanket for the baby. We are so lucky to have mom's that are excited for the arrival of their 10th grandchild. You think another child would be an old story, but they are just as excited as they were for their first! Thanks Moms! We love you both!
