"To live would be an awfully big adventure"

Exciting news! (But maybe not really.  It depends on whether or not you find languages fascinating).  Yesterday I had my first conversation completely in Spanish, by myself, without a translator, with someone I don't know.  I had to ask the kind lady who works at the front desk if I could use her printer and then had to explain why.  I was not very eloquent but the lady was very patient and understanding and I managed to complete the task that I needed to do.  Yay!

I have found a movie that is currently competing with Pride and Prejudice at the top of my favorites list: Peter Pan (the 2003 version with Jeremy Sumpter and Olivia Williams).  I've watched it 1 1/2 times in the past two days and I'm contemplating watching it again today.  The first time I saw the end I had to hold back my tears because I didn't want my campers to see me cry.  But the second time there was no holding back.  Peter knew true love and then he lost it! How tragic!  It got me thinking.  Which is worse: knowing true love and losing it or never knowing it?  Thankfully I'll never have to find out because I'm blessed to love and be loved by the Lord.

Much love!
