I found this one particularly inspiring in light of recent elections...
"The test of courage comes when we are in the minority.
The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority."
-- Ralph W. Sockman
Food for thought. Have a great week!

About Me
- Your Other Mom
- Me...that's a difficult subject for me to discuss. To most people I seem very outgoing but in reality I prefer to stay behind the scenes. I have a great husband and a wonderful teenage daughter. (Wonderful and Teenager in the same sentence--isn't that an oxymoron?) They listen to my rants and raves and sometimes even hear them. We own a pest control company where I am the "office manager" and we homeschool. It's definitely a juggling act. A wonderful friend recently moved away and it still hurts, but there are other fantastic friends and we are commiserating together over the loss. I love to travel and cook. Give me the chance and I am outta here. Some favorite destinations: Lake Tahoe, Walt Disney World, and College Station. (Gig 'Em Aggies!) Where would I like to go? Italy - there I can feed both my 2 hobbies. Read On and Enjoy! Please comment...I love comments!
