With inspiration from my dear sister-in-law, Rachel, I embark on this adventure - capturing an image every day for a year both to have for myself and to share with you. My hope is that through this effort, I will "keep peace in the noisy confusion of life" - taking time to notice the small things, celebrate the big things, and more fully appreciate the gift of each new day. Of course, I had every intention of beginning this on January 1st - but when that day came and went without a blog, Rachel assured me that this project can begin on any day. After a slow start, I really hope I can pull it off - and that you'll enjoy it!

Day 149 - June 6: Egg Drop

Today the annual Egg Drop was held at Dale Street School.  Leading up to today's event, 5th graders paired up to create contraptions to house an egg as it was dropped out a second story window to the asphalt below.  Contraptions were to be made by hand and not weigh more than 200 grams.  Somehow this project simulates the process by which astronauts deliver precious cargo in space.  All I know is that it's great fun to watch - and Lane and Eliza's egg survived the fall.
