Party!

Hey all. I had an Easter RockStar party this last week for my daughter Cheyenne and an Egg Hunt for all the girls.....and during this time, I wonder what I've done to impact my daughter on what Easter is all about for a Christian. It is a time for fun, family, egg hunts, cute bunnies...but it's also about the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The sad thing is that instead of being happy, sometime, I just feel like a failure as a mother and a Christian....The good thing is...it's ok to fall, as long as you get back up each day and do your best with what you have. Even if you guys out there don't all share my beliefs, I encourage you to live your life according to yours, don't forget the things you stand for. Life can be pretty rough....we get caught up in day to day upsets and we don't make that time for ourselves or we settle for things that we KNOW don't follow our beliefs.. Be Strong, be Brave, and Stand by your values....one of my favorite quotes by Roosevelt:

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." Enjoy your Easter! Love you Jesus!
