"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

Ve's BB season

"Well done ladies, 21-7 overall (Including 15-1 over the last 5 tournaments) for the season for this wonderful and hard working group of girls!  Just remember players, "you are never there" meaning you can always improve on your individual and team game." quote from Ve's head BB coach. Well said and it was a good season. Her team won the last 4 tournaments, but then nearly half the team came down with the flu, but oh it was so worth it!! :)

Some Science Olympians I had worked with this year

We placed 14th out of 29 teams and we competed in 18 out of 23 events. This was only our second year and we had 10 members, still 3 short of the maximum number..We have so much potential, it is exciting to see how it will turn out in the years to come.

This weekend









Very busy once again. Tuki debuted in her first play and performed in 3 shows and Ve's team once again won their BB tourney this weekend. Mim are struggling A LOT......I am beginning to understand why some families choose to disrupt the adoptions...too upset to say more at this time.
