...10.31.10...










every day.
you should be proud.
to be a parent.
then.
some days.
you are prouder than most.
sarah.
participated in locks of love this week.
she is a beautiful spirit.
a caring heart.
one who would not think twice about.
giving.
my eyes are brimmed with tears of pride.
my heart is swelling with love for this selfless act.
this week.
made me want to go out and
be in-the-moment.
i spoke of yesterday.
i stood under that tree.
i watched the leaves falling.
i chased my leaf.
it was laughing,
deep from the belly laughing.
chasing the leaves
as they twirled in the wind.
and went in the opposite direction.
from where you started.
it was a good release.
i caught my leaf.
i made my wish.
life IS good.
HE is great.
we are blessed.
welcome to coffee hour.
welcome to this Sunday morning.
just BE.
robin.
