Perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see Life with a clearer view again.

When you are sorrowful
look into your heart
and you shall see that
you are weeping
for that which has been
your delight

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time”
Quote by John Lubbock
Well, we are one day away from the end of the school year and wow what a year it has been. From the humble beginnings of us walking in the school together teary eyed and upset to this morning holding a rose for the teacher from our garden and a smile on her face.
I had a meeting with the behavioural team just on Monday and the feedback from everyone has been great. We anticipate some what of a setback come September but all in all we are just continuing to move forward. We are continuing to build upon the strong foundations that we have built this year.
Sydney has already met her teacher for next year and they got along very well. The paperwork has been set for next year too so I still have the same people involved in Sydney’s well being.
As a gift to the teachers we decided that no boxes of chocolates or gift certificates would quite say or do what we wanted them all to know. We wanted them all to know how very grateful we were for their hard work and patience. Syndey and I collaborated together and did a little book for them all called, “My life at Bruce Trail”. Using her works of art and some of her sayings we put together a wonderful memory of this year.
So now what’s next? Well, we have a number of friends to see, some relaxing to do, some swimming and summer without packing and moving and unpacking. Let’s hope the lack of routine will not do us in.
Tell us how you co-ordinate your summer vacation? Do you do summer camps or casual get togethers?
Hats off to summer!
