Finally, my favorite post of the week! Every Sunday morning I take some of the photos that you have uploaded to the Facebook wall, and I post them here. I love This is Beautiful You because it gives me (and everybody else) an incredible glimpse of who we all are. It puts a face on the awesome people coming here. It gives us a beautiful idea of the uniqueness and diversity of the followers here at SDL. More than anything, it shows all of us just how beautiful we each can be.
Anyway, thank you for sharing a small part of yourselves. It’s my honor to put the spotlight on you today. This is beautiful you.
http://youtu.be/ywMgXE11Ziw My 10 yr old daughter is beautiful. She is inspirational, brave and strong. She pokes her self a minimum of 12 times a day to check her blood sugar. She has been poked over 19,500 times in the past 4 years. All she wishes for and asks for is a cure for type 1 diabetes. My other 2 children are also beautiful. They are strong and independent. They deal with jealousy issues because their younger sister gets more attention than she does due to her having type 1 diabetes.
Rene Seymour Helfert, you are a beautiful woman and an amazing mother!
:)
aawww Cali thanks for your kind words :)
Ali is the first person I think of when someone says "beautiful." she is intelligent, loving, caring, and generous. She is one of the most caring people in the world, and I have learned so much from her, and her family, about loving nature and the animals that surround you. She is truly a beautiful soul, and it is a treasure to see what she is doing with her life!
Sharon L. Gray is beautiful! Not only am i blessed to have her as a mother, I am also lucky enough to count her among my friends. She has always been there for me, for good and bad times. She has taught me so much in my life! She is kind-hearted, generous, loving, and full of strength I can only hope to have inherited some of. She is a loyal friend, and gives more of herself than anyone I know.
RazCas Parkerberry, this beautiful woman has been my bestie since kindergarten. She's sweet, strong, and sassy, and an amazing mother. I'm so glad our girls get to grow up together too!
I think Cindy Kreager is beautiful, inside and out. She's an amazing mom, wonderful grammi and the coolest mother-in-law a girl could ask for!
Michelle Walker Baker. She has the kindest aura and a soothing voice. A passion for kids and the arts and is an all around rock star.
<3
My best friend Stephanie Montross Schulte is beautiful for so many reasons! She has always made friendship an art form, and is the best listener on the planet! I will always treasure her!!!!

Seeing your post today about Grandparents makes me really miss my grandfather. We lost him in 2011 unexpectedly, he was a healthy guy too. I wish I could post a picture of him on your website today. Thank you for letting us read about your life.

My dearest, oldest friend in the world Lesley Charlyn Goodley ... she is a strong woman (stronger than she knows) and is a great mom to her beautiful children. I'm so fortunate to have her in my life!
I love these posts. This blog would be worth following even if you posted nothing here but your Sunday posts, Dan. The only thing is, I can never decide which one to tag. All of these pictures and all of these people are beautiful.
The reason I keep following this blog every day, though, is that, to me, everything you post here is magic, any day of the week.
Signed, An Embarrassingly Starstruck Fan, Me.
Alisha Johnson, Sandrina Saintignon, & Whitney Hughes.....sorry, but three came to mind. The first is my daughter and the other two I would take as daughters any day!!! Two are working hard, going to school, raising children on their own, (one, because her fiance has been deployed, the other because of other difficult circumstances.) They are holding it all together in today's wicked economy and uncertain future. The third has had her fare share of emotional hurt and lost love, and through it all, she is just as sweet and un-jaded as a daisy....just adorable and would do anything for anyone if it's in her power. I love them all and pray their futures are full of blessings and joys that their cups run over
Alex Kidder. He accepts everything about me and loves me regardless of my MANY issues. Last but not least, my son, Gryphon. Without him, everything means nothing. I have never been more completely in love with another person. In my eyes he is perfect. :)
David Shawn Kennedy... my amazing husband who is serving 20+ years of selfless service to the United States Army.
What an honor to be tagged in here by one of my favorite people in the world! Dane Findley, I heart you!!!!!!!
Thank you Jennifer :)
My sister, Glenda Earle is beautiful and amazing! She has gone through so much this past year and has no idea how strong I think she is! I love her so much!
One of my oldest friends Andrea Molinari Enyart is beautiful. Not only is she beautiful on the outside, but she is one of the kindest souls I know. She has raised two great children as a single mom. She graduated college when most would have already thrownin the towel. She goes out of her way to always make people feel welcome and is always fun to be around. So blessed to call her my friend.
My cousin Ridgeway-McCarty Roxanne because she is an amazingly strong, brave woman. She has been through a lot but has pulled through it. She is a wonderful mother and an inspiration to me
My niece Ashley Drysdale is the most beautiful girl I have ever known. Not just physically but also her actions, words, and deeds. She is always there for her friends, her brothers, and nephew.
My baby girl. Because my babies are the most precious gift I could have possibly been given. I am always amazed at how someone so beautiful could be so closely related to me.
Dan Pearce, because his "Beautiful You" posts make me smile every time!
Awwweee Kim... I love you!!!
Pam Johnson- Driskill because she is always thinking of others , her positive attitude and she is the best sister ever. She has beauty inside and out.
my boyfriend Tom Vega is beautiful. He accepts me for just the way I am with all my imperfections and litte weird issues. He always encourages me and is always loving and kind. There have been very few times where he has showed any anger to me and that is saying a lot. Im a handful lol and my son Tyler Douglas because hes my child and everything he breathes is beautiful to me :)
Julie Russell is the most beautiful person I know. She brightens my every day and is such a strong woman! I look up to her, and adore her hugs. She is a very special person.
My sister Heather Odell is one of the most gorgeous people I know, and has put up with so much crap, yet she's still tender hearted and sweet, and has always been my hero for that.
Laurie Levy because she can juggle 52 things at once with a smile on her face and constantly thinks about other people instead of herself.

Bethanee Woten, she is very selfless and sweet. Always helping others and always sacrificing her own needs and wants for others. Beautiful inside and out even if she doesn't see it or feel it herself.
Hopefully the rules are that I cant only can tag one bcuz Robert Tillery is the best husband and father, my soulmate, my strength when I am weak and makes me strive to be a better me. Tana Davidson is so beautiful and amazing... Not only is she talented, driven and intelligent but she's a great mom who juggles so many things in her life. She's hilarious, compassionate, fun and I couldn't ask for a better sister!! Last but not least Brenda Davidson my amazing gorgeous mom. She has a heart of gold and inspires me to trust more. She's so giving of herself it amazes me. She's the least selfish person I know and I'm so very proud of her!! I love you three sooooo much and couldn't live without any of you!!!
