The swing waits, waits for the child
The child that makes it move and soar and fly
The flight that carries the swing and the child high into the air
The air that moves and gives life
The life that is so precious

Enjoy it all today. Slainte, Lisa
My daughter Amy, age 6, is my guest blogger today, and she would like to share her thoughts on what love means.
My doll Laura wants to tell you about love. Love means showing care to people. Love means being a nice person. Love means telling the truth. Love means helping people when they feel bad. The way my doll can show love is by always being near me. And the way I can show love is by always being very, very nice to people. I hope you like this blog, and I’m going to say goodbye now. So remember, love is the best way to encourage people. Love, Amy and my doll Laura
Ok, so I just saw these dogs play the piano, and I must say that I am amazed. And check out their happy faces while they play. Also, no discernible “I’m the best musician around attitude”….a refreshing way to be awesome. 🙂 So watch this, you’ll be glad you did. 🙂 Slainte, Lisa

Have a blessed and happy weekend. Slainte, Lisa
When I was a little girl and when the sun hit the water just right, I thought there were diamonds out there in the surf. And if I just could get there quick enough and catch one, it would stay glittery and beautiful in my hand. But alas, those diamonds seemed to be of the stuff of leprechaun gold and fairy dust, and I was never quite fast enough to fish one out. I sure had fun trying, though. 🙂 If you’re by the sea today, catch a diamond for me, and if you’re not, imagine yourself picking up one triumphantly in your hand for all to see. It will make you smile and that’s a good thing. Slainte, Lisa
