What I love most about myself???

Tonite, I had a Hot Totties meeting with some of my most favorite women!

We started with an icebreaker where we threw a ball of yarn from one person to the next and we had to answer a question that our President (the one and only, rockin' SUZANNE!) came up with.

Several questions like:

  • What kind of animal would you be given the choice?
  • What is the best gift ever given to you?
  • If you had to lose one of your senses what would it be?
My question was ....

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT YOURSELF????

On the spot, you dont have a lot of time to think about a question of this caliber! Of coarse, I started out with, "ummm, wellllll, there are JUST. SOOOO. MANY. THINGS. ITS. REALLY. HARD. TO. CHOOSE."

I quickly came up with: My personality.

I'm really grateful that God granted me the ability to laugh... both at myself and lifes' many insane situations.

But I have to say that after thinking about the question the rest of the evening, I do, INDEED, love a lot of things about myself....

I love that:
  • I can forgive myself for mistakes that I've made.
  • I've worked really hard to be a successful woman.
  • I've got an AMAZING network of friends... outside of where I'm from!
  • I have a very happy marriage.
  • I work hard to love myself - regardless of lifes UPS and DOWNS!
  • at the end of the day, I know, that I know, THAT I KNOW, that God loves me right. where. I. am.!... I really love that I know that... b/c there are people that I love very deeply that still don't know that!
So for what its worth, I really DO love a lot about myself.... and honestly, not in a cocky, conceited way... but in a way that I'm really proud of... and today, on the 55th wedding anniversary of my very beloved grandparents, I'm happy to say that because of their endless love and reinforcement, I believed what they said about me... " I have a lot to be proud of."
