Fall

Well as I sit here tonight it finally feels like fall. I want things with Pumpkin in them, I'm already thinking about caroling and neighborhood Christmas pageants and I bet it's 65 degrees outside.. LOL sigh. If I lived in Texas I suppose I would get my fix at the Friday night lights experience..

We are girls with deep thoughts and even bigger dreams.

Did everyone go into the village?"   "Oh Honey" said the Queen stepping outside of her chamber wearing a bathrobe and her hair on top of her head.  "They're not gone. They're teenagers."   "What in God's name is a teenager?" shouted the King.  "Oh dear." The queen remarked turning up her chalice of wine. "What isn't a teenager?"

They Call me MOM

This is the goal... isn't it? for our kids to think this right up here. This beautiful phrase. Because God knows we're all broken, and even though sometimes we feel like Roseanne Conner, we are ALL as cool as Lorelai Gilmore,  as gorgeous as Tami Taylor,  and my GOD as fierce as Kristina Braverman so DO NOT sell yourself short ladies. Just take one day at a time.
