Count your blessings...
The people...
...the parent who nurtured you
...the friend who consoled you
...the stranger who lent a helping hand
The moments...
...a child's hug and kiss
...a soothing cup of tea
...an inspiring book
The familiar
...the sky above
...the warm sun
...the green grass
The unfathomable...
...God's undying love
Count your blessings
like a well watered garden
nurture contentment
and grow in gratitude
Talent Show
Shell Beach Talent Show at their own MPR to give chance to others who missed the performance at Clark Center. Ian left school early to give support to his sister. By some chance Phil's afternoon class was cancelled and he was able to lend his own support. Here's a video for your viewing pleasure....
Quest for Greener Grass?
The grass is not greener on the other side....
....it is greener where it is watered
Coastal Dance at Dinosaur Caves Park
Ian and Phil took the photos and I took the video (click on the play button and enjoy Isabella's passion for dancing). Isabella absolutely loves to dance. Some people came over to us raving about her (of course it helps that she's the tiniest performer). One mom of 2 boys said watching Isabella makes her want to have a girl.
It is delightful witnessing not just Isabella's but all the performers' love of dance. Their teacher and director, Kathy Schultz', own love for dance brings this passion out of all these wonderful dancers. She is a great and positive teacher, loved by all her students and parents. We truly feel very fortunate to be part of Coastal Dance.

Broken yet Complete
As I explore and ponder...
...my thoughts and feelings,
...dreams and aspirations,
...problems and frustrations,
these journals have become...
...a sweet release from life’s complications
...a silent reminder of hope
...a resource in time of need
in moments of confusion, self-doubt, feelings of inadequacy, fatigue and hopelessness
would I allow fear and desperation to fill me with hatred and despair?
through the admission of my brokenness,
I am reminded of my humanity.
In this awareness of my human frailty,
I am drawn to HIM
I meet HIM at the cross
at HIS feet,
in my brokenness,
I am complete.
