The other one that I always get emotional about when it comes on our Pandora station is "Sing," which Big Bird traditionally sings.

Who doesn't love Kermit the frog?! He is the best. Such encouraging words this week. We should be green and be proud. At times it is so hard for us to embrace all of who we are-even the parts we think stand out in a bad way (as you stated here). I suppose there is no bad. Only different "colors" as we are all unique. I will be green along with you today :)Rebekahhttp://weliveinspired.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-835263578522511208.post-74052459930441910202013-05-03T20:22:47.808-05:002013-05-03T20:22:47.808-05:00Hi Amy,
