Love the kite, and the message. I went to a motivational speaker last spring and living the intentional life was the message. Hard to do sometimes, but important! Thank you for sharing all your inspirations. Great categories for food for thought!

Thank you for your visit and your kind words. I am so sorry that your mom is ill, I hope by now you have some answers that aren't frightening. My mom actually had a large tumor in her abdomen and we didn't know what to expect until they did surgery. She was found to have one the size of a football and one the size of a baseball. They were both benign and that was 31 years before she died from something entirely different. I remember how scared we all were waiting for the results and it turned out fine, I hope you have the same result. It is such a strange feeling when the tables turn and we are the ones worrying about our parents. Sending love and prayers to you all.
