life in clifton
Well here we are July 1,2006. I didn't say rabbit, rabbit this morning prior to getting out of bed so...... Yesterday OASAS finished their audit and we were faced with many moral and ethical dilemmas. I am proud at the ways in which I've grown over the past ten years. I can now stand up for myself and people on my team. I believe in myself so much more today. I also got a call from TJ asking about Brenda ( an employee) and I think she is going to be hired away from me. I think Brenda's great and have grown really close to her so I'll miss her but it's time for her to fly. Em and Shawn seem to be doing well. Today is Em's last day at work. WOOO HOOO! Lucky her. Tara leaves for NYC today. I so admire her ability to forge a new path. She is courageous and self assured. If I've done anything at all as a parent it's giving my children the ability to believe anything is possible. God knows we never had money but if you have the power of dreams I think you're set. It also speaks to the kind of spirit the girls ( they hate when I lump them together like that) have. I can't say enough how full my heart gets with gratitude when I look at my kids. I have done nothing in my life that warrants the blessings I've received from Em, Tara and Marissa but I'm eternally grateful. I'll write later today. For anyone just passing by this is not the world's most fascinating blog. For us, it's a link between mother and daughter's and sisters and sisters. We are never going to be the type that says I shoulda. WE JUST DO IT. Our mantra, " I will not live my life regretting things I've done. I'm more likely to regret the things I didn't" We got that lesson early on when Em had a chance to dance with the queen at the Renaissance Fair but didn't. Ever since then it's been , " If you get the coice to sit it out or dance WE DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
