My parent's 50th anniversary slideshow


The picture portion of the powerpoint presentation from my parent's 50th anniversary party. I'll add the music if I ever figure out how!

Kindness


I was visiting friends yesterday and was sitting in the kitchen chatting. Josh, 3 yrs old, noticed that I had left my cellphone and bottle of water in the living room. He brought them in to me, so I could have them next to me on the kitchen table. When his mom and I thanked him for being so helpful, he looked at us very seriously, and said, "I'm a kind person." It was said so seriously, thoughtfully, and matter of factly. Little kids are often such good reminders of the basics, of what's really important. They don't see the shades of gray we often seem to have to wade through.
