These are the days of Grace~~ Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. By Denis Waitley

Wanderlust
Force yourself to wander off the beaten path and see what you find. Dare to be delighted in a place you've never known before. Quote of my own, inspired by folks at The Happiness Project
Glowing, gloating mom of one bright lil girl. My days are filled with ballerina dances, books, balls & bubbles along with all that comes with being a mom. My real, full time job is to teach Grace how to love God, herself & others. On the side, I'm in private practice as
a Child Development Specialist & Developmental Therapist working with infants/toddlers with special needs. I absolutely LOVE IT! Making headway on my SLP degree. A 2nd Masters is right around the corner. HA! I live for God & love this journey despite rough terrain at times. Love where it's taken me & learning to be content back home again. Remember: you can't drive with your eyeballs glued to the rearview mirror-it's only for glancing back!
Sooner or later you figure out life is constructed specifically and brilliantly to squeeze a man into association with the Owner of heaven. It is a struggle, with labor pains and thorny landscape, bloody hands and sweaty brow, head in hands, moments of severe loneliness and questioning, moments of ache and desire. All this leads to God, I think... Matter and thought are a canvas on which God paints, a painting with tragedy and delivery, with sin and redemption. Life is a dance toward God, I begin to think. And the dance is not so graceful as we might want. While we glide and swing our practiced sway, God crowds our feet, bumps our toes, and scuffs our shoes. So we learn to dance with the One who made us. And it is a difficult dance to learn, because its steps are foreign. - Donald Miller
