What brings you Joy?



For Enrichment this week we had performances and displays of things people create or talents they have that bring them joy. After not many people signed up, they sent around emails asking for more sign-ups and I caved. I had Greg film my "rough draft" so I could see what to fix. Here's the rough draft. It ended up being a fun night and there were lots of neat performances and displays like quilts and home made dresses, photography and painting, the fiddle and the violin, singing etc. It was especially fun to have my Mom and Sisters there :) I am glad it is over though because it has consumed my thoughts the past week :)

Heather! I don't know whether it was the music or just being able to see the pure joy in you as you did that but it totally made me cry! I honestly think one day you will look back on that and be soooo glad you did it. Seriously, really, really cool.

heather, i have never seen you show your skills like that. the music was a perfect background and i did get choked up, too. very lovely, long limbs and very graceful.
nice try, meredith-we've all saw you win the all-around gold medal in gymnastics this year.
