I look up to the single moms, drug councilors, and parent volunteers at my kids school. We all have the opportunity to make a positive impact on the world around us, but unfortunatly, we all don't get recognized for our good deeds as much as other "heros" like athletes and such.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by www.theresasmixednuts.blogspot.com I am a new GFC follower :)<br />TheresaTheresa Mahoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10709965543595065306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535525493775623042.post-85787068936011733912012-03-07T04:42:36.598-08:002012-03-07T04:42:36.598-08:00I loved Pippi Longstocking as a child!I loved Pippi Longstocking as a child!BusyWorkingMamahttp://www.busyworkingmama.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535525493775623042.post-50555479430014355342012-03-07T04:10:03.433-08:002012-03-07T04:10:03.433-08:00This was a great post.
