We clap hands and welcome the Peace of Christmas. We beckon the good season to wait a while with us. We, Baptist and Buddhist, Methodist and Muslim, say come. Peace. Come and fill us and our world with your majesty. We, the Jew and the Jainist, the Catholic and the Confucian, implore you to stay … Continue reading Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

A Snippet of Joy – #WGWW
***Updated since yesterday's original post*** The weather has been a bit wonky here, and I spent much of yesterday fighting with my WiFi. I finally gave up and uploaded pics from the mobile WordPress app on my phone and called it a night. Now I'm having trouble editing (reducing the size) of the pictures. Anyway, … Continue reading A Snippet of Joy – #WGWW
What’s Going Well Wednesday
What's going well for you today?
What’s Going Well. . . Wait! What Day is It?!
Seriously, you guys, I was excited to post this week since I missed last week, but I'm all mixed up (obviously!!!) and realized this morning that . . . today is actually Thursday.

And sometimes I get a clear shot, but unfortunately not as often as I'd like. Gil takes great shots of objects -- buildings, architecture, … Continue reading Capturing Action
I’m On a Mission

It was a Fuji, point and shoot, and it was fine for my limited technical knowledge. I found the baby phase a little tedious. Obviously I adored my … Continue reading I’m On a Mission
His Happy Place
I haven't written much about everything we're going through with Piers, mostly because it's taking all of my energy to simply plow through it. Things are better and for that I'm grateful. I took this photo over Easter weekend and it makes me smile every time I see it. I can't begin to describe the … Continue reading His Happy Place
Happy Easter!
It's been a rough few days, y'all. So today we did what we do when we're not sure how to make sense of this big, beautiful, tragic life. We went to the beach. It didn't make everything okay, but I feel like I can face the world now. I'm looking forward to summer and lots … Continue reading Happy Easter!
