Amazing Things



Amazing things happen when you run down hills.  The wind blows your hair back and you can’t help but laugh at loud at the feeling of absolute freedom that soars through you. 



Amazing things happen when you find yourself surrounded by hundreds of neon yellow plastic strips.  Your heart lightens with the joy of being a kid and having a child’s imagination that can create entire worlds inside these long plastic straws.



Amazing things happen when immerse yourself in the creations of others.  You find inspiration for your own creative spirit.



Amazing things happen when you take time just be.  You often find yourself and find the joy of sharing simple moments with those you most care about.



Amazing things happen when you take something simple and multiply it, creating a mosaic of simplicity that is startling in its beauty.



Amazing things happen when you spend a day teaching your children to respect and admire the wondrous creations that amazingly talented individuals have created.  The beauty of what they have seen will shine through in their smile.

What amazing things have you experienced?

Inspired by our recent trip to the Los Angeles Museum of Art.

  1. I have not been to the LA Museum for Art since I was about your son's age, I could spend hours there. It looks like you all had a great time. I can't believe how big your daughter is getting in just such a short period of time. She is so adorable. I hope you have a wonderful week.xx
