Tonight's picture was taken in June of 2003. Mattie was 14 months old and we were visiting Great Falls Park. As you can see he was very intrigued by this Canadian Goose. Mattie loved birds and ducks and understood that they were not something that should be chased. This goose was equally fascinated by Mattie and was waddling over to say hello. I remember this moment and found it so adorable that I reached for my camera to capture it!
Quote of the day: Somewhere we know that without silence words lose their meaning, that without listening speaking no longer heals, that without distance closeness cannot cure. ~ Henri Nouwen
I spent the entire day working on our Foundation's upcoming June newsletter, which will feature our Walk photos and information about our Walk results. This has been a real labor of love. A labor which has taken many weeks, just to get to this point. Because we had a lot of digging out to do post-walk and a lot to organize and make sense out of in order to report some facts. But the newsletter is slowly coming along. I am taking on other big projects this summer like redoing our Foundation brochure, which has to be ready for the July conference, and the even larger task of revamping our entire Foundation website. That requires training, which I am going for on Friday. I am not technologically savvy, so designing a website should be a pip. But since I designed the Walk website from the ground up, I feel slightly more confident, that I can take on this project. However, the overall Foundation website needs a whole new and modern look and our lobbyist's company is consulting with us on this project. I tend to write and be wordy and websites today need to tell a story ALL through photos and graphics. So I will need a lot of help!
