WOW

I just found out today that I was accepted into the AMI Training of Trainers program! That means.... well, what does that mean? I guess you could say that it's the opportunity for me to take another step into refining my understanding of the beauty of Montessori.

Yoga philosophy also emphasizes that the number one reason we practice yoga (or insert practice Montessori) is so that we can have a Revelation/to see the Universal/and further Align ourselves with the Divine. And in the terms of Montessori theory, that Divine is seen in the child and is the miracle of the child. The second reason why we practice is so that we can be more skillful, artistic, and fruitful in our celebration of life. We are here to enjoy it, so why not hone our skills and make more beauty come alive within us and within others?

For when we cultivate more wisdom we deepen our experience leading to a more rich and delightful time. So yay! I am getting the opportunity to grow more beauty and have an even more meaningful experience with children (and maybe as a future trainer, with adults!).

Nope, Nothing to Report, Nada

You'll just have to wait longer. I know you're dying to see pics from Zach and Jackie's visit over here, but there's absolutely no way I can download the pics from the camera to my laptop.

So we wait. Until Chase gets back that is. He's the only one who can solve this mystery of where the pluggy thing went (the USB thing that you need to connect the camera to the laptop, yeah, that one). In fact, he still might even have it packed away and whisked away to Paris on his business trip.

Who knows.

At least the anticipation will build and you'll be even more amazed with my amateur photography skills when you do get to see the pictures.... of us drinking way too many glasses of champagne, at least that's all I felt we drank for almost two weeks....

Cheers!
