Pam's blog

OK, my sister is writing again. For all of you young moms, you have to read her potty training entry. You will all enjoy. All to all of you not so young moms, or shall I say those with older kids, read it. You will get a chuckle.

Im not saying you're old, you not so youngs, I am referring to the age of the kids.

Love ya all!

Rules: Each player answers the question themselves. At the end of the post the player then tags 5 people and posts their names, then goes to their blog and leaves them a comment letting them know that they've been tagged and asking them to read your blog. Let the person that tagged you know when you've answered the questions on your blog

New Template

Hope you like my new template. I have lost some of my info in the transition, please give a short comment--or a long one if you feel like it--so I can make your blog a link. I am selfish, it makes it easier for me to read yours.

Also, I burned the hamburger helper in the process of the updated look. Oh brother.

Mark says he still loves me. I'm glad.

Don't skip the blog below. I love the poem.

Just a thought

I went to Mark's cousin's funeral last weekend. It was the kind of funeral that you wish sincerely you knew the deceased better. He was such a great guy. I always take the great things people say about their loved ones at times like these with a grain of salt because it is human nature to not be perfect, but Danny seemed pretty much nearly there. I was touched by so many of the comments of his family and friends, the many stories they told, and just the general spirit of the event. One of the best parts was the poem on the back of the program folder. It was written by Marianne Williamson. Please indulge me while I share.

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's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
People won't feel insecure around you.
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.

I feel so blessed to have friends and know people who are like this for me. Just know I apprecicate you all.
