Imagine

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer

but I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

and the world will be as one.

Happy Birthday Kim!

I have been so very blessed to have this girl in my life.
I have watched you grow.
I have watched you laugh
I have watched you smile
I have watched you become 12.
Keep growing my sweet girl.
Becca loves you!
Happy Birthday Miss Fine!

It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.

Twelve

Tomorrow my baby turns 12.  

This last year has been a time of huge change and yet so much of her remains my little girl.

I cannot stop her from growing up but I can enjoy every second and know that she rocks it like only she can!

I love you Kimberly and Happiest of Happy Birthdays!

Autumn

I like spring, but it is too young.
I like summer, but it is too proud.
So I like best of all autumn, because its tone is mellower,
its colors are richer, and it is tinged with a little sorrow.
Its golden richness speaks not of the innocence of spring,
nor the power of summer,
but of the mellowness and kindly wisdom of approaching age.
It knows the limitations of life
and its content.

Wild Places

.....And then I go to the wild places, where I can't hear the thoughts of the others, all I hear is our Mother.  There I am at peace.

I open myself to her love and fill my soul with her wordless praise.

Me

Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
~Seymour Miller & Jill Jackson~

Picky People

Friends really are the family you pick for yourself.

I love my weirdo family!

They fit me like a glove.
