"When I approach a child, they inspire in me two sentiments; tenderness for what they are, and respect for what they may become."




Some of my favorite kids from my time in Monterrey!

A quote from one of my favorite authors, Donald Miller:

“And so my prayer is that your story will involve some leaving and some coming home, some summer and some winter, some roses blooming out like children in a play. My hope is that you story will be about changing, about getting something beautiful born inside of you, about learning to love a woman or a man, about learning to love a child, about moving yourself around water, around mountains, around friends, about learing to love others more than we love ourselves, about learning oneness as a way of understanding God. We get one story, you and I, and one story alone. God has established the elements, the setting the climax and the resolution. it would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn’t it? It might be time for you to go. It might be time to change, to shine out. I want to repeat one word for you: Leave. Roll the word around on your tongue for a bit. It is a beautiful word, isn't it? So strong and forceful, the way you have always wanted to be. And you will not be alone. You have never been alone. Don't worry. Everything will still be here when you get back. It is you who will have changed...Everybody has to leave, everybody has to leave their home and come back so they can love it again for all new reasons."
