Lesson #4

Lesson #4 I learned from my grandkids

"Music is an important and powerful part of life"

Addison who at age two sings with a vibrato, and loves the little mermaid. Mia's original song says you can be my friend if you want. Hey you can even be my cousin. Or you can be what ever you want. Hows that for inspired words!

Music can have a powerful influence for good.

Lesson #3

Lesson # 3 I have learned from my Grandkids

"Totally give into the feelings during difficult times, by surrendering to the pain rather than resisting it."

In this picture of four of our grandaughters I was trying to get them to all look at their flower but Mia's flower broke and she wouldn't pretend it didn't matter.

I always say as long as you are still breathing you are still going to experience trials in your life. Our joys will live along side of our sorrows. Children have a way of feeling deeply and then moving on with life.

My computer is still not letting me upload pictures but I uploaded some on Andrea's computer. I just spend a wonderful week in an unbelievably sunny Seattle with three of the cutest kids and one great mommy who is holding down the fort for 8 more weeks while Michael is in Afganistan.
