Family, laughter, growth, ambition, creativity, marriage, parenthood, childhood, celebration, music, cooking, feasting, community, dancing (so much dancing), swimming, playing, reading, singing, resting, jumping (the former home of a trampoline), reaching, teaching, learning, feeling, yearning, stillness, chaos, tears (in joy and loss), exhilaration, disappointment, triumph, devotion, nature, nurture, transition, birth and light - metaphorically and literally - and, above all else, Love. Beginning again and again and again in a seemingly endless cycle of life - extraordinary and teeming with multitudes - saturating this home in the essence of everything that is meaningful.
