Yep. You climbed to the top of the ladder for sure. Love this and the song, "I hope you dance." Isn't that the truth? I need to dance more. Thanks for the encouragement. I used to dance with the kids a lot when they were little. Think I'll put some swing music on tomorrow and get down with my (really) bad self! :)<br /><br />Happy Mother's Day!

You are so right and sometimes I need to see that in print before I realize that it's okay to be happy and silly and dance and you don't always have to be a grown up. Sometimes it's just alright to have fun and be a kid at heart again.

Although perhaps with this economy, and so many people losing their jobs, they have been forced to this reality.<br /><br />I decided many years ago that my job was only to pay the bills so to speak, but deeper meaning would be found in other places.<br /><br />I have truly found a bliss here in Kansas, on our 26 acres that we call home with our menagerie of animals. I still need a job, but it is not the primary thing in my life.<br /><br />A wonderful post, with fantastic photos as always.Girl Tornadohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07289862625817473671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740230132498814658.post-7451583786704992592009-05-08T19:48:00.000-04:002009-05-08T19:48:00.000-04:00Hi Andrea, What beautiful photos tonight and what ...Hi Andrea, What beautiful photos tonight and what passionate words. I gave up a career to be care-taker of first dad, then mom and now Nalley. The time I have to enjoy LIFE and what is important, including my pets, is priceless. When I cry, one of the three pets climbs up in my lap! Did you see Harriet's swimsuit photo a few posts back? She is so chubby! I sure wish I had your expertise with a camera. You are an inspiration.
