Inspiration for the Week

Two years ago my mother-in-law gave me a beautiful Christmas ornament - a small globe. It was far to pretty too hang on the tree for just one month out of the year. Plus, I LOVE the world - the people, cultures, history! I hung the ornament from the light in my front room as a year-round symbol of our family's thirst to take it all in. What an adventure is out there waiting for us in the whole wide world!

Earlier this year, my sister-in-law made a video for her family featuring a song I was unfamiliar with. But I LOVED the lyrics. They reminded me of my globe, hanging above me, right at this moment.

"I wanna hold the whole wide world
Right here in my open hands.
Maybe I'm just a little girl,
A little girl with great, big plans."

Maybe I AM just a little girl, but I've got great big dreams of seeing more and doing more in the wide open world outside my door. Can't wait to share our adventures with you, and hope you'll share yours with me too!
