Thank you to the slim few who commented on my blogs. I changed the comment section to accept anyone so now there are no excuses!

To Clique or not to clique?

Why do we have this need to fit in? Everyone is out to impress, gain approval and essentially become a member of a clique. For what, a sense of belonging? You want to feel like you belong to this group, even if though you don't like half the people in it. Is it a source of support or simply a way to protect you from other cliques and your own insecurities?

In the end, do you want to be a part of a group that can leave you stripped of individuality and prevent you from mixing with people outside your group? Cliques cause you to act differently from normal in an effort to fit in; often leaving you feeling even more lost than when you were alone.

So I ask again....why do we have this need to fit in? Find confidence and boost your self esteem so that you can stand proud. Don't let yourself be labeled. Be yourself!

A few pics & updates

Joseph turns 5 soon! 5!! Seriously?!? I know...time just keeps slipping away. We've been busy planning his birthday party. It's actually a lot of fun now that he can give his input. He's picked out the decorations all the way down to the food we'll serve. It's not a big party but one he's going to leave his mark on. This will be the 1st he's done the planning for. How fun!
Noah really enjoys the time he's getting with me when Joseph is at school. We've had a great time searching for marked down Halloween costumes. He loves to run around the house, pretending he's a super hero. These boys are great and so much fun. Not to mention, adorable. Aren't they so cute?!?
