Make It Stop

A cake with candles and a bounce house are common at many birthday parties. Typically these are the makings of a magical celebration. Sometimes it is too overwhelming. All we can do is step aside and do our best to regroup, hoping the there will be a quiet moment soon. How do you handle an overwhelming moment- do cover your ears or run and hide?

Don’t Leave Me

Preschool is story time and apple juice. That’s the easy part. The hard part is saying good bye. We know that in time it will be positive, but that moment of anguish on a child’s face reminds us of all the firsts that we have experienced. It will be alright, but for a moment we just want to give one more reassuring big hug. Do you remember your first day of school?

Strength In The Stillness

So often we are rushing- we forget to take a moment to stop. This woman is fully absorbed in her world. She is completely immersed in the scent and the beauty. there will always be work to be done, but if we don’t take a moment to pass we might just miss something beautiful.

Life is made up of many moments, but the magical moments make life special. Milestones shape who we are. Graduations and weddings are the obvious ones, but the smaller ones are also impactful. I recall these moments and experience the emotion all over again. Can you recall your last meaningful moment?
