PRETTY RAINBOW...

Nina, 8 years old. 




Are you drooling yet?


Eating raw foods makes you appreciate food in such an awesome way...the time you put into making it, touching the food, smelling it, admiring the colors and texture and tasting..hmmm. So why is it that we humans like to take the shortcuts, avoid pain and change, when we know that those things are very necessary to building and molding us? Something to think about isn't it? Lots of great new this week and last, so my little Wonder aka my 8 year old, Nina, got a very impressive report card and a certificate because she made it to Honor's Roll. How cool is that? As a mom and her home-school teacher I feel so humbled and extremely proud.
