31 Day Blog Challenge...Day 2

 Day 2--Favorite Quotes

I'm not much of a quote person to be honest but I can come up with a few...

One is something my great grandmother used to say and I'm not going to get it exactly right but you'll get the idea--
"Your actions are speaking so loudly I can't hear what you're saying."

And another from Jim Elliott--
"Wherever you are, be all there."

And, another from myself that I like to use on exasperated mothers and on myself, --
"You're living your dream!"

That last quote really does help me to find the joy in my often hectic life.  For as long as I could remember I wanted to be a stay at home mom and once I heard about homeschooling I wanted to do that too.  I am truly living my dream every day.  When I remind myself of that, I get a little flutter of excitement deep inside and a renewed sense of purpose.

I see I have a lot of catching up to do. I like this blog challenge. What a cute idea. I'm tired and can't remember what else I was going to say.
