You remember that person in high school? The one who was picked on because they were, well, different?
We used the description “marched to the beat of a different drummer.” They did their own thing and didn’t worry about what other people thought. And, we called them “strange.” The rest of us were busy trying to make sure that we fit in with the same clothes as everyone else and that our hair was the same as everyone else. We were all afraid to really express what WE liked and what WE wanted to do.












So true! What makes a family fun and interesting is that they really are all different and not marching to the same beat. Challenging at times, yes, however most rewarding! We have three, the oldest at 21, is always finding outdoor adventures and is presently working at a camp up in Maine as a white water guide on a level 5 river and leading wilderness teams. Our middle son may have the edge on intellect in the area of engineering and math and our youngest daughter is blossoming into an amazing artist at 16! All we can do is cultivate the interests and loves that begin to emerge in their lives and celebrate who they are! We are so blessed (:

Does your site have a contact page? I’m having trouble locating it but, I’d like to send you an e-mail. I’ve got some ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great blog and I look forward to seeing it improve over time.
