Anyway

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centerted; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, People may accuse you of selfish,ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you could spend years building, someone could destory overnight; Build anyway. If you find Serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tommorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis. it is between you and your higher power; it is never between you and them ANYWAY.

Just think.....

You're here not by chance,
but by God's choosing.
His hand formed you
and made you
the person you are.
He compares you to no one else--
you are one of a kind.
You are lack nothing
that His grace can't give you.
He has allowed you to be here
at this time in history
to fulfill His special purpose
for this generation.

Being happy doesn't mean everything 's perfect.
It means you decide to see beyond the imperfections.

TAKE A MOMENT TO REMEMBER HOW SPECIAL YOU ARE AND HOW LUCKY THE WORLD IS TO HAVE YOU IN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dance as if no one
is watching,

Sing as if no one
were listening,

And live everyday
as if it were your LAST.

Still alive...

I'm still here...I can feel the "Holiday pressure" that's what I call it that I feel around this time of year. Your know have I done all I need to make it special for my family? Will the kids remember this year? Did I get everyone on my Christmas card list that I need to and should have? I know that I didn't send them to "everyone" and I wasn't trying to ruffle any ones feathers by not sending them one either..it's almost like you get what you give type of thing with me anymore....does that sound juvenile? I probably need professional help but it's hard to reach out and get nothing....sad but true.
But I promise to get back on track. My head has been killing me and when that happens no pictures..it's hard to do with a headache :( I worked this week at August school in the Nursery..yes you read right the nursery and it was so much fun for me I got to love on sweet babies and work with a sweet gal Jennifer that I'd never worked with before. This was my first time to work in the nursery..so fun..I heart babies!! I want a job there so bad I guess I need to drop harder hints to Heather :) Lanta has been busy with school too...being a first grader is hard work too. She loves school so that is such a HUGE blessing. If she couldn't go to school she would be so sad...I'll have to remember this feeling in four or five years when she maybe doesn't like school..fingers crossed! Soon we will be out of school for Christmas and Uncle Kris (my brother) will be here next week for a week to visit. So I promise life will get back on track :)
Merry Christmas

I'm having trouble getting into the Christmas mood...it just doesn't seem like Christmas to me.

But I do know what you mean about 'pressure' mine will probably hit next week ;o}

We still have that 'one' special item to get and obviously EVERYONE is getting one for Christmas this year.

I totally know what you mean about "pressure"! I am so sorry you have had your headache! I know those totally do you in, poor Hil! Good for you for even getting some cards out. I didn't even get any cards out at all. And at this point, I don't think it's going to happen. Sigh. I wish I would have gotten on them earlier. I still have the book for Lanta to borrow and the recipe. I would love for you guys to come by soon! Let me know when you can!

Aww Hilary you've got one of those beautiful, generous, giving hearts that does all it can, and wants to do more...I wouldn't call that juvenile.

I just want to wish you and your family a pleasant, peaceful, warm, happy holiday season(s)....

Also, thanks for the rays of refreshing sunshine your blog provides for those storms that hover over us at times that seems so heavy!

Sugarplum wishes,
amanda
