Just home from a week of camping with our tribe in the little town of 
Coombs, famous for its Goats on the Roof market. Our gang of kiddos, 
ranging from 4 to 14, spent most of their time playing Werewolves, a very 
fun group game that no one seemed to tire of. There was a lot of learning, 
laughter, debating, public speaking, moderating, collaborating, strategizing 
and debriefing. And we continue to talk about it here at home as we reflect 
on the memories made this week.

If only I could hand you a share of the joy and wonderment, the enthusiam and diversity, the ease and moving through dis-ease, the absolute fun of being suspended in a space, camping with the most phenomenal of people ...
because honestly, my cup runneth over.

This 11 year old boy of mine keeps going further and further out, exploring the world around him and his place in it, pushing his own personal comfort zone, sometimes pushing me out of mine. It's a wonder to behold.

 It's in the details, the teeny tiny, every piece considered details and then in to the story. The story unfolding to ears ready to listen. And in hearing the story each detail makes sense. In this photo it's the LEGO though I think it is true that seeing the details and hearing the story are at the heart of how we live together.

Some people just leap in with all their enthusiasm.  Some people hang back and get a feel for something for a bit first.  I have one of each, and am still learning how to help them each in their approach, especially this leaping style as I tend to be the hang back type myself.  This picture, this joy, is why I need to never quelch that fire....
