A Little Bit Of Luke...

... and a whole lot of deep breathing for mom! Luke is my daredevil, well... one of my daredevils.

Thankfully he is also a very capable daredevil.

He is the boy who falls into the category of "addicted to the adrenaline rush", and he is always in a much better mood if he gets at least a couple of "rushes" a day.

Sometimes it doesn't take much, just a lot of movement. Other times it takes higher, faster, longer, crazier...

Today though, it was a mild kind of rush. And being the responsible mom that I am, I took pictures!

A Spirit Of Joy!

(am I the most pathetic blogger, or what?)


“One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.”
― Helen Keller


“If you celebrate your differentness, the world will, too. It believes exactly what you tell it—through the words you use to describe yourself, the actions you take to care for yourself, and the choices you make to express yourself. Tell the world you are one-of-a-kind creation who came here to experience wonder and spread joy..." ”
― Victoria Moran



“...let joy be unconfined...”
― George Gordon Byron


“It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart.”



“Beauty is not caused. It is.”
Emily Dickinson



“Joy is of the will which labours, which overcomes obstacles, which knows triumph.”
William Butler Yeats
