Thank you for that poem. I am the largest I have ever been and lately I have been quite miserable about it. I needed that.
Hope to see you in Atlanta!

she doesn't know it yet but i will personally be dragging her to the homeschool convention...hell or high water...you'll see her she wants to go but i'll make sure she makes it there, lol.
funny thing is, bran is probably the most easily identifiable amitymama so just look for someone that looks very 'branwyn-esque' and it's a sure bet.
and she's mad at her hips for being too big--she's seeing herself in a mirror and then trying to get through a keyhole. So much sh*t society passes on to our daughters--and so many expectations we pass on to our boys.....

Bran, that was awesome! Curvy mamas kick booty. The thing that is strange, id that when I was a size 10 I thought I was huge. Now that I couldn't hope to fit into a size 10, I think I'm looking pretty alright.
While we're at it, I can't let a thread like this pass without Maya Angelou's Phenomenal Woman. This is just the first stanza as to not take up the whole page, lol.
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Wow, Branwyn. I needed that tonight. And the Maya Angelou poem is one of my favorites. Every once in awhile I copy that one and send it to all the women in my family. I am bigger now than I have ever been and started weight watchers again recently. I told my hubby I wish I could get back to the size I was when we met (yeah, right! which in reality would not be healthy), he sat me down and said he would support me if I wanted to lose the weight but that he thinks of me as a goddess no matter what size and I should live like I am a goddess. What a cool guy
