being yourself...

as a child we can more freely be ourself....

we have imagination.......


dreams........




what one might think of as a chicken, another might see as the most glorious bird


being proud to call that bird even a friend


you can look at the world through someone else's eyes....or see the glorious world you already live in

it is up to you be yourself


don't be a chicken



be a beautiful brown eyed rare breed, that gives the best to others 

this may be the only way you know how to be
and that's okay

be yourself...

no one can change you

except you


xo+blessings,

  3. Changing the things I can, learning to live with what I cannot change, and praying for wisdom to know the difference....

  6. Beautiful excepting of yourself and who you are as a standout instead of fitting in post!

    Love that you are also a rare breed, standing out Anne Marie and therefor teaching your children about life.

    That bird is a handsome guy/gal and has all the love it needs from your daughter its care taker.

  7. Dear Anne Marie,
    I could not agree more. Beautifully written. I have told me girls and now my two grandkids to always be true to yourself, be you. You are special and its your spirit that shines though.
    Baby Daniele is getting so big and he is so adorable.
    Have a sweet day and hugs,
    Elizabeth
