Gratitude

“Seek and you will find. Don’t be willing to accept an ordinary life.” -Salle Merriell Redfield

This quote came to me in a package last week. I think I should make it our family motto.

I had to write today to express my gratitude for all of the amazing, supportive people in my life. It is such a blessing to share my dreams (sometimes a bit crazy by normal standards) and have them embraced. My heart is overflowing with love for all of the wishes, encouragement, understanding and love that I have received lately.

Whether your message was written, verbal or an unspoken thought of affirmation, THANK YOU!!! You inspire me to follow my dreams. With this much love behind them I know beyond a doubt that things will work out.

Our first step, we are hitting the road for our first family camping trip of 2011. I’m so excited! I’m even packing my painting supplies with hopes that I can get some plein air painting time.

Updates when we return.
