Getting Involved!

I made a new friend recently at my Son's football game. Her son is on the team, and he a good friend to my son. She has greatly impressed me. She is very involved in community activities. I have always wanted to be involved in PTA and city activities, but to be honest I always feel insecure and intimidated. People don't usually perceive that from me, but it is true. I am working on being more confident in myself, but enough about that. I was writing to say that she has inspired me to get involved even if it is scary. My son and I went with her and some other volunteers to put fliers on doorknobs for the republican party. My son was excited to help in this historic election in his own small way! I am going to join the Lubbock Women Area Republicans (LAWR), and I am thrilled about it! I also am volunteering at church and the school when time permits. I am grateful for the personal growth the LORD has allowed in my life in the past 3 yrs, especially the previous 6 mths.

Fun and lessons from Summit!

Well, we had a blast at our Summit in San Antonio! Everyone looked so cute in their 50's clothes! We had amazing teachers! It amazes me the spiritual and personal growth I receive at each Mary Kay event I go to! It is like a big hug and a small push from the LORD each time I go. I realize that I am afraid to dream too big because Of my Pride. I don't want to have to tell people I failed. I am really going to work on that! We have a saying in Mary Kay, "Shoot for the Moon, and land among the Stars!" I love that. Even if I fail to reach my goal the first time, I will be farther to my goal. I will just try again. This is such a good lesson for my son to learn by watching me. He loves to see me acheiving. He grabs the monthly newsletter that my director sends out every month with our unit recognition, and he counts how many times my name is in it. He always says he is proud of me!
