Wisdom

A Sunday school teacher from my childhood taught a verse that pops into my thoughts often.

Be very careful then, how you live. Not as unwise, but as wise.

Wisdom comes in many ways, these words define many life choices and I hold them dear. My hope is to instill wisdom and the desire to seek wise advice and choices for my girls.

I have a brass wise owl on my kitchen window sill that a dear friend gave to me, it reminds me daily of her and to make wise choices.

Hola.

Starting something a bit more personal and private than facebook.  Not overly impressed with how things are changing on there, how advertisements are popping up, how the inevitable miscommunication of a forget to *like* becomes unwanted drama, how privacy is really not private and how I miss actually *hearing* from friends and family.  I have been reminded of what a wonderful circle that surrounds me, who my true friends are and that family is the backbone to survival.  My goal for the new year is to write more personal emails, pick up the phone more often and to hand write at least one letter a month... so don't be surprised is you receive one.  Days off will be spent having lots of learning fun with those that I love, more deliberate times with my friends and soaking in the moments that are such sparkly jewels in the 'every day'. 

October was a month full of wonderful moments, I hope to recapture some of the day-to-day dealings of 4 princess with you as this blog progresses.  I'll start at the beginning of my daily circle, it expands from these 5 people that teach me new things, almost every moment.  This weekend was filled with moments of Songs and Soccer (Katelyn Melody), Art (Sarah), Gymnastics (Auria and Danielle), yummy family dinners with funny movies (Mama and Papa) and of course always lots of laughs with Uncle Danjr (pronounced 'danger').  I have promised myself that I will take more pictures, sing more songs and keep a focus on eating well and deliberate exercise with my girls.  So feel free to follow along, enjoy our journey and be sure to share your moments too!
