Tis the season....

Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.
~Hamilton Wright Mabie

So excited for tomorrow. There is a kind of excitement in the air around here. And I feel like I need to take a few moments to talk about my parents.
I have to say, I do believe my parents could quite possibly be the most generous people I have ever known. They find no greater joy than doing something for others. And the "something" that they have come up with this time is a big one! They are sponsoring and hosting our big water party tomorrow evening. And they are as excited as we are! They took this idea and they ran with it. Dad has been pounding the pavement getting donations for the auction. Mom has been spreading the word and sharing her passion with her friends and recruiting them to help out with the decorations and food. And they have both given big to this cause. On so many levels. I am so proud to call them Mom and Dad. I can only hope that a fraction of their generosity made its way into my blood.
So blessed by them.
So very blessed.
