As you may remember, I won an apron that my daughter sewed for a little blog contest she had. It was fun and I am supposed to "play it forward." So here is my little contest. To enter, all you have to do is to leave a comment on my blog and share with me your favorite quote and why it is your favorite. There will be 3 names randomly drawn on Friday, July 25th and I will post the winners. Each winner will receive a pack of scrapbooking stickers and coordinating ribbon. Feel free to pass along the word to other friends of mine. Gooood luck!

Okay, I like this one. I just saw it on someone's blog :)
"My life is my message," -Ghandi
I don't know who wrote this quote. When I was overcoming my bout with depression, this quote was my theme. :)
"Life might not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we might as well dance."
ok... for those who may not have heard this yet :) Brent said this back in Sacromento in the context of what is historical.
"History? That meal I just ate five minutes ago. That's History."
I guess it doesn't hurt to enter two favorite quotes right?
Thomas Jefferson said a few good things in his day.
"I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it."
"In matters of style, swim with the current;
In matters of principle, stand like a rock. "
and lastly,
"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty."
This is why we have chosen to raise our kids to be democrats:
"Your success as a family... our success as a nation... depends not on what happens inside the White House, but on what happens inside your house." -Barbara Bush
Just kidding about the democrat thing. But I think the quote speaks for itself on why I love it so much. I read it not long ago in a book called, "I am a Mother".
ok,this is the quote I love...
"The Savior's victory can compensate not only for our sins but also for our inadequacies....."
Bruce c. Hafen

"Take your needle my child and work at your pattern —
it will come out a rose by and by.
Life is like that . . . one stitch
at a time, taken patiently."
— Oliver Wendell Holmes
Another quote I love.
I'm not sure who said it, by my favorite quote, and it's actually on my myspace is:
"You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself."
I believe it 100%!
Hey Lorinda! I don't blog, but wanted to enter the "contest" for the prize.
"Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother." -Lin Yutang
