This is a special show. We will be playing the audio from the Saturday Conference in Oklahoma. If you were not able to be there don't worry; you can still be a part of that magical day. Put on your tiara and join us. Here is Pam's testimonial about that day. Dear Friends, I just got back from Oklahoma City where Marla and I spoke at the Moore Baptist Church at their Mother Daughter Lunch. It was the first time we had actually been “partners” on stage and we had a wonderful time! Our theme (of course) was Get Organized, but we had a surprising twist for the 700 mothers, daughters and grandmothers! We introduced them to their “inner princesses.” An amazing thing happened; they “got it.” Marla had purchased tiaras for each person and we asked them at the start of the speech to put them on (the young children and older women had already done so without our permission). We asked the children (about 50 of them between the ages of five and 11) to stand up so the adults could take a look at them and remember what that age is like.

Then we asked the ladies to “play at their tables as if they were somewhere within that age range. It was easy to do because they all had their tiaras on and the tables were decorated like we were having a big party with balloons, flowers, butterflies and brilliant colors in the centerpieces. Marla and I were astounded by the energy in the room! The group was transformed into raw joy! There was laughter and movement and each person seemed to be freed from self-consciousness or worry or anger or anything adults can carry because they’re adults. After the speech a lovely woman came up to me and said: “I’ve been getting your 365 surprises for a couple of years and I’m sorry to say, I didn’t get “the brat thing” until today!” What had we done differently? What could I say to those who just don’t quite “get it”? It certainly
