Passions and Beauty

My oldest girl possesses a unique passion.  

Perhaps you've picked up on it through the years, or maybe not.    

She couldn't care less about sports.

She was blessed with beauty and a sparkle in her eyes.

Whether she tries or not, her smile can steel the show.

The joy in her giggle is the butter to my bread.

She has a way with nature and peacefulness.

She can get inside her head and become anything.  

She has no limits.

And inside that enormous mind of hers, lives an even larger imagination.

She moves with grace and intention.

And this is who she is.  She is art and beauty, kindness, peace and a giggle.  

And she secretly loves the limelight.

So when the opportunity for Theater Camp at the Winterset Stage became available, she decided to take her passion to the stage.

All week long, we listened to 'Hard Knock Life', 'Gary Indiana', 'Wells Fargo Wagon' and 'Oh The Thinks you can Think'.

She was in heaven.  And making new friends along the way.

 And when the day of the final performance arrived, she was a natural.  Doing what she loved, with a ginormous smile.

It's amazing to see the amount of beauty a person can possess in the midst of their passions.

My prayer is that her passions reach heights beyond her wildest imagination.
