Our dearest sisters, The message today is BIG, because it’s about BIG dreams. The kind of dreams that usually get lost in a day because the realistic part of your mind turns them off before they even get started. We’ll never forget creating a “Dream Poster” with the family one night when we were just eleven or twelve. We cut out and drew pictures of our biggest dreams that year, Continue Reading
Letter to Our Sisters: Life is to Be Enjoyed, Not Just Endured
Dearest Sisters, We love memories. This week we’ve been thinking back on so many memories. Memories of the New England fall, when the leaves turn bright oranges and reds and the air gets crisp and chilly.

It almost feels like we're in a speed boat! There it is, this gorgeous tranquil water, it's mirror-like surface shimmering, reflecting the sunlight with its tossing ripples right outside your window. Moments Continue Reading

It is time to CELEBRATE The United States of America, HOME, Land of the FREE!!! Last week the celebration began for us in Church. As we sang the great hymns of this nation, rejoicing in it's greatness and the freedom we and our fellow Americans have enjoyed, I was especially touched by Star-Spangled banner.
