"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

She (and you) look jus GREAT! I love her in puffs, just like I love G in puffs/ponytails too!

Has she even thrown any fits or kind of "gone off any deep ends" ever since she got over doing that after the beginning? G will stil very occasionally "go all the way" i call it. I think it seems that many of the kids even coming home more recently seem to be adjusting even better than G did!

I'm so impressed....

Thanks for keeping me in your visitors list, I am glad that adjustments are going well, it is very encouraging. I am hoping to bring my kids home in June :0)
