Make a wish...

The Sunflower field at Buttonwood Farm in Griswold, Conn., where we took a hayride to benefit "Make a Wish."

I saw this beautiful painting today at Kid's City in Middletown, Conn. It's part of the mural in the Toddler's Undersea Watercaves.

Once I spotted it, I couldn't take my eyes off it. How wonderful that someone created this breastfeeding mermaid and that it was included in the mural that surrounds the youngest children's playspace.

About me

I thought I'd start by writing a bit about who I am. Last night while I was cleaning I picked up a journal given to me by my wonderful friend Julianna, which has on it a beautiful poem that is identified only as an "American Indian Prayer."

Feels like a pretty accurate description.

I AM

I am a woman of
light,
a woman
of the day,

I am a
mother
woman,

I am a woman who looks
into the inside of things,

I am a whirling
woman of colors.

Lucky sevens?

Doh.

Computer is running a little slow this morning so I'm not quite going to make my 7 a.m. post on 7-7-07 (which seemed like an auspicious time to begin this new venture). Oh well. I started posting at that time at least!
