Tiny universe

Although I am sometimes overwhelmed by the honor and challenges of raising children -- of somehow helping to guide them into semi-sane and responsible adults, of trying to meet all of their needs while not forgetting my own, of being a good example instead of a horrible warning -- kids are really so amazing.

Last week after picking up my youngest from her water sports camp, while waiting on the grass for her older sisters to be done with their water sports camp, she said: "Close your eyes and hold out your hand."

So I did.

So tiny and unexpected.

Yes, the rewards way out weigh the difficulties and then grand children are a blessing beyond all measure.
Love, Mom
