Delightfully whimsical and profound quotes from Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium
May I suggest you stun the world
Your life is an occasion, rise to it
We must face tomorrow, whatever it may hold, with determination, joy and bravery
Light bulbs die, I will depart
We breathe. We pulse. We regenerate. Our hearts beat. Our minds create. Our souls ingest. 37 seconds, well used, is a lifetime.
Sweet treats hand delivered with hilariously fun drawings
New friends, shared meals, shared stories and lasting connections
Perfect Tuesdays – sneaky coffee, story time, finishing projects, building IKEA furniture, lunches with Shea, coffee in the Captain’s office, finished off with lava cake and life giving conversation
New hairstylist and new hair
Hearing stories about the results from the MCB’s (medical capacity building) OR renovation project at a local hospital… the OR is in use, the OR team is keeping it clean and sterile and putting their skills learned from mentoring and training to good use
Risk takers… a whole little team of them that has now made a lasting impact on healthcare in Madagascar
Sunsets from the gangway
“Your feedback matters”
Time with Katie never disappoints
Friends who relish a good word challenge
One year of running and more importantly, another year of friendship and shared memories with Katie
A roommate who doesn’t like Peeps but knows I do and gifts a Peep pop to me
Finally making it Friday dinner at the Korean place
Fresh flowers so fragrant you can smell them all the way down the hall
The many hands that volunteered and helped transform the International Lounge into something truly special for the Father Daughter Dinner Dance
Twirly dresses and little giggles
Creating a Royal Salon for a group of well loved princesses and how many women poured love into them
That sometimes worship looks like curling hair, painting nails or putting on make up
Men who gave up their Saturday night to serve these girls and their dads, how these men served quietly and with a lot of respect and care and how they jumped into help in unexpected ways
The abundance of cameras when they were needed
The sweetness of dads delighting in their daughters as they twirled and ran and giggled and danced
That something lasting happens in memories like this, that these girls will carry something very special with them and maybe they won’t ever fully know the impact but its there nonetheless
A sparkle shoe twin
Quick tear down and reset
A group of girls who have the world before them and knowing each one is created to be a beautiful influencer in her part of the world
A Beautiful Wander
