the MEN in our lives

what a prince
visit him here for a laugh

whose hardworking hands

reach out to us everyday

deserve a hand





right back from us

for what they do for


LOVE:

Problem-solving

making us feel like the 

little princesses 

we WISH to be

BUT loving us for who we 

really are.

Let's Pretend

It's all child's play

source unknown

almost a

 ChARaDE

via

or a masquerade 

that we play

via

until we 

get it right.

via

This pursuit we call 

wonder


calls us

to look out 

tumblr

 
with a believing heart

pinterest via

and to share what 

our art 

 can capture. 


But when we fail


we simply try again.


Let's Pretend

and play the role 

we wish to be

via

and continue with dignity

until 

we get it right

because child's play

via

will one day


become

reality.

Back to Finchley

After having experienced the 

delights

via

and lights

via

of enchanting possibilities

in

Narnia

via

via

how on earth 

could Susan 

Peter 

Edmund 

and Lucy go  

Back to FiNChLey?

via

Those of us who also

have traveled 

through the wardrobe 

and back

via

 

to embrace

holiday bliss

via

sweet repose

unknown source

and flirt with personal goals

via

must COME BACK

to face our own

realities of


work

stress

challenges 

and even


disappointments.


How will I live in my own


Finchley?

and I will dream while I am 

AWAKE

Falling Up

Crazy, isn't it

this little thing called

LOVE?

It makes promises

tumblr

keeps us warm and fuzzy

tumblr

makes us ponder

playful

and is often times 

painful.

But in all your seasons of 

experience

via

FALL UPWARDS and

GROW to new heights in love

in life's garden

via

and 

stand out among the rest.
