If she is brave enough to trust her natural instincts, to stand and walk tall, then so can I. Thank you for teaching me Miss Pearl! Why or when do our natural instincts "run out"? I think as adults we assume it's something we should have learned in the past.  What if we gave ourselves the patience and time to experience life as a newborn. We need to explore the simplicities of life to find what truly matters. Simple movements. Communication skills.  Laughter and play. Gestures of love and affection. Children know more than we think. They are true magic.

If I keep all of my ideas up in this darn head of mine, a creative life is going to be a little bit tougher to fulfill. One step at a time, baby steps, just like Ava Pearl. Here we go again.
