"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day

RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.

Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

Tuks has gotten so big!! She sure is a monkey. Think I will skip the gymnastics classes. I'm too chicken to watch the after-stunts.

Tuks seems tall, reminds me of my Sky. You've got your hands full with a dare devil, but that makes things interesting. LOL

We have a mini tramp. I mostly use it in the winter when I can't get out. It is good for the kids for burning excess energy. It is also supposed to do something for their brain development that they missed out on infants. Similar to moms bouncing their babies on their shoulder.

Look at your big girl! Not a baby anymore is she? I was just pricing mini-trampolines on line last night! Looks like fun!
