When we pause to celebrate, we find the joy.
A week filled with moments to celebrate and remember!
1. Messages and pics from Sara!
Sara's in Baltimore helping out after Ann and Andrew's family grew to four. We haven't carved out as much time to chat, but I've loved the pictures and yesterday's FaceTime chat with the birthday girl, a three year old propelled by birthday exuberance! I celebrate a three year old who moves constantly,
and a one week old who seems to be sleeping a lot!

2. An evening walk with a friend!
We used to walk together frequently. Schedules and life get in the way,
but we carved out time to squeeze in a stroll at sunset.
3. Poetic pleasures!
Our Thursday afternoon book club prowled the pages of poetry books in search of poems to share with the school community. Next week, we'll meet on both Monday and Tuesday so we can post poems around the school in preparation for celebrating "Poem in Your Pocket Day" on Thursday.
4. 400 Posts!
Today marks my 400th post! I'm still grateful to my students who encouraged me to go public with my posts during Slice of Life 2012. I closed my eyes and plunged in. I've continued to plod along faithfully, rewarded by reading your posts and continually being inspired by the writers who surround me.
