"tomorrow

is a new day. we will start fresh. i am confident that it will be a better day"

i'm observing

a pattern.  a string.  whatever, it's important.
Chase,
Phil,
and another.

anger = fear, covered up.
acting out = an unmet need, often entirely unrelated to the situation.
hurting others = being hurt, either currently or an unresolved previously.

maybe not always are these things true, but there is a pattern of cases that support them.

so much

to learn. so much to share.  so much wonder.
joy
love,



(KKH, I find myself more and more teaching all about things I didn't know about.  yesterday, Trinity taught us all about Blue Morpho butterflies from a trip to Houston Science Museum with her grandmother.  all I could do was stand there and think of you telling us time and time again about constructivist education, about creating a knowledge base from everyone in the classroom & not just the teacher.  so. cool.)

and frozen of course:

for frozen canvas painting, of course.

sigh.  only day one and my heart is full.
love.

Timelapse: Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta from Roadtrippers on Vimeo.

i can not wait to get back up, to pilot, to share flight with others,
to win competitions?
yes, maybe.

when oceans rise




"take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
and my faith will be made stronger
in the presence of my savior

I will call upon your name
and keep my eyes above the waves
my soul will rest in your embrace
i am yours and you are mine"

i

have heard this before:

but never really got it.  until yesterday when i taught it, and it turned into:


and then this: 


and then after a sight-seeing of clouds, some constructivist teaching (that I learned from the best that Kara Kelley Hallmark), and some courage it all turned into these:


things are good. really good.
