"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

Practice makes perfect

While the girls practiced riding a tricycle handed down to us from friends in temperature about 20+ degrees cooler than 3 days ago,

Little too small for Ve, but it works for now since she doesn't have the hang of pushing with alternating legs


Tuks is doing much better than last year and I predict I will have two bike riders before the summer is out.
I planted my vegetable seeds. These included: summer squash, acorn squash, bush cucumbers, red cabbage, broccoli, peppers, regular and cherry tomatoes, peas, yellow and green beans, carrots, radishes and two types of lettuce. If you wonder how they all transplant, I assure you it all went real easy and well last summer...that is until I over fertilized, which WILL NOT happen this summer. LOL
