Now we can be blogging buddies too! 🙂

You were a YPM?!?! I wanted to do that so badly, but summers meant making money… so I did other shows and stuff. What year were you out there? My grandparents were missionaries in Nauvoo. I’m trying to remember when they were out there. I will have to ask.

You blog is super fun! I have enjoyed reading your posts. I’m not very good at posting, but will enjoy keeping up with yours!

Kristin

I don’t quite know how to get over that.

How did the scrapbooking entry go?

Nice post.

I consistently have to remind myself that there is no one else who can fill my place. (Even though I can plainly see SEVERAL people around me at all time who would obviously do a much better job.) 🙂

Thank you for the reminder.

I think the biggest confidence challenge I ever had was revealing to people how much I love table designs. I always felt odd that people might confuse my dinnerware collection with showing off which always killed my confidence unless I was sure no one was going to see it. That’s why now I am so much more at peace with myself.

Feeling not good enough stinks and I’m so glad you have these posts to strenghten you.
