just about 5040 hours ago

I was driving to school on the Morning of November 6, 2012 and I was anxious about the outcome of the Presidential election. I was listening to inspirational music and suddenly a bald eagle soared in front of the car. Literally just feet in front of the hood it swooped and then it shot back up into the sky! My anxiety transformed into hopeful excitement and I continued onward with an awe in my heart.

A flash of wonder

Standing in the stillness of an early summer night I look upward into the dark sky. I see the distant light of a satellite as it orbits. I recall a moment years before when someone took a group of teachers (including myself) outside to see the flash of another satellite as it suddenly caught the rays of the sun that had set about an hour before. I do not expect the flash this time, but I remain focused on the traveling dot and hope. Then it happens... I am amazed by the synchronicity of the event. I am thankful to have experienced this again. I hope to share many such moments with my daughter as she grows and learns...

Reading to my daughter and watching her smile...
