BE Yourself ....This is Part of Me

Revelation

I heard this song this morning and it totally fits how I am feeling today.

Give me a Revelation
Show me what to do
Cause I've been trying
To find my way
But I haven't got a clue

Tell me should I stay here
Or do I need to move?
Give me a Revelation
I've got nothing without You

Photo Highlights

Because I don't have as much time to blog anymore, I thought I'd give some highlights of the last few months in photos:
My big 7 year old girl blowing out the candles on the Tinkerbell cake I made her.
The Marvin the Martian cake I made for dh's birthday (he LOVES Marvin the Martian).

My gorgeous children dressed up for fancy day at school (the older two, #3 was just hangin' with Mommy.)
The Mickey Mouse cake I made for #3's 3rd birthday (yes, I was on a weird theme cake thing this year - it was kind of fun.)
My brother visiting his niece and nephews. We get to see him so rarely and they loved having him here.
The fantastic feast for a friend's birthday.#3 relaxing after a hard day.A visitor in our back yard.My two gorgeous boys.On a Mother's day cruise with my beautiful daughter.


My new haircut.

Doooonnnnuuuttttssssss

The kids and I made these today. #2 cut the donut holes out. They are pretty small, LOL, and with the extra dough, #3 made donut holes (those three blobs in the top right hand corner). These are regular glaze on the side you can't see.

Good thing we went for a very long walk during the first rise. Pretty sure these aren't low cal! :-)

Thoughts

This is who I am
Not always who you see
When you pull the knife
It plunges deep in me.

The scars never fade
To be bitter never mine
But now this bed has been made
I'm not sure I'm really fine.

Just because you are strong
Doesn't mean that I am weak
Every thing that I show
All the emotion that I leak.

You don't know my past
And I don't expect you to
But respect me for who I am
And all that I do.

I'm sorry that I'm not good
Enough for what you seem to need
I'm sorry that you can't see
The way I am able to love and lead.

If you don't want
What I have to give
It's not the end of the world
And I will surely live.

Hurt, I will go on and forgive
Even as anger recedes
Because that's is who I am
Even if it isn't who you see.
