Such a peaceful and wonderful walk with Thomas this afternoon. We sat in the cool, green, shaded grass and watched a worm inch along, up and down blades of grass. These walks complete me …. Yes and thank you …. xoxo

It’s like the feeling when you slip into your favorite pair of comfy pants or slip into your favorite robe. That feeling. So wonderful …. Walk this morning … xoxo

On a walk this afternoon with Lillian …. I ask her, “What do you feel is the purpose of art?”

My phone ran out of storage before she got done. Last point from Lillian, “You can see art in nature, and then you can share nature with others through art.” xoxoxo

Sunset walk with two of my favorite people. Lillian and I spotted this gorgeous bush. The birds were singing and we had a nearly full moon. Felt so good, so right. Our walks inspire me.

Disagreeable Moments and Egrets and Crazy Beautiful Clouds and Birds

Posted on by

September 18 2016:

If sibling relationships were always loving and kind, would we know this as a loving and kind relationship? Or must we experience the disagreeable and unkind moments to know how to have a loving and kind relationship?

A day of blaring contrasts for these two. In the present moment perspective, I choose to see it as a day of learning for them. Yet, from the perspective of my past experiences, I struggle with being around arguing and disagreements. Whew!! What a day!!

Went for an after dinner walk so nature could lend a hand! Taking pictures of nature always lifts my spirits. xoxo

Wonderful walk this morning. The egrets seem to be loving it here.

Plus!! I’m so excited! The blue billed ducks have returned!! They are my favorite. I can’t seem to get a photo of them with my phone. Need something a bit fancier.

I’ve experienced kundalini yoga the past 2 days and I love, love, love it. Absolutely amazing!!!

From our walk last night …. Mind the strong wind!! WOW!!! Plus, my phone went dead before Lillian finished.

The rest …. Then she would find a mate, build a nest, lay lots of beautiful eggs, and teach the baby birds to fly.

You gotta watch it to hear the question and beginning of her answer. xoxo

The Place Where Knowledge is Shelved

Posted on by

September 16 2016:

Today was that day.

The day we travel beyond this city, this state, this country, beyond our wildest dreams, back to the past, into the future, to make believe worlds, to real life, to the mystical, spiritual, to the Angels, to the fairies, to the depths of the sea, and beyond the stars.

The library. The place where knowledge is shelved, someone else’s imagination can be checked out, and dreams come true. xoxo

She Spread Her Wings …. And Flew – Happy 15th Birthday Lillian

Posted on by

September 14 2016:

So this one turns 15 at 11:27 pm tonight … We’ve been celebrating all day as hopefully we’ll be asleep by that time!

… And she spread her wings …. Took a deep breath … And, just like that …. She FLEW!!! xoxo ….

For anyone who has been following all of the amazing accomplishments Lillian has made since this past July, you truly understand my comment above. They are happening so fast I cannot even keep up with posting them here.

See this picture below .. That’s a first … Taken last night on a Team TLC adventure. Jumping in the air bunches and bunches of times while I took 771 pictures of her …

4 pounds of heaven grown into a full blown fairy angel who knows she is to be a writer and helper. She has indeed done it her way … From butt scooting instead of crawling, talking different than others, eating, drinking, walking different than others …. and on and on and on … Blessed, blessed, blessed and so grateful we chose one another to teach and learn. Happy Happy Happy 15th Birthday Lillian Darnell!!!

Today is her day. After physical therapy this morning I took her to pick out sparkly headbands, then for gluten free donuts at Haven on Earth, and then home.

After resting for a few minutes, she opened her gifts, Thomas and I sang her Happy Birthday, and then we ate way too much of the gluten free chocolate cake (with oh so yummy cream cheese frosting) that we made last night.

Then we finished the celebration with a “live” Facebook birthday party!! That was interesting and fun!!!

 

Taking Pictures and Jumping and Eating Grapes and Walking in the Rain

September 13 2016:

This opened my heart. So blessed and loved that we went for our after dinner walk in this spot and at this time.

All 3 of us took tons of pictures, had a ball jumping on the hill for pictures, eating grapes straight from the vine, and ended by walking in pouring down rain and strong wind!! Check out the moon on a stick!!

Thomas said he wouldn’t have wanted to be anywhere else. Now we are going to bake a chocolate cake and make cream cheese frosting for Lillian’s birthday cake tomorrow. We may just eat a piece tonight!
