“I have no power of miracle
other than the attainment of quiet happiness,
I have no tact except the exercise of gentleness”
~Oracle of Sumiyoshi
* Photo taken at Lake Koronis in Paynesville, MN, girls weekend with Blair and Kate. This is me and Kate, taken by Blair, at sunset on the Wagner’s dock. Ah…the sanctuary of friendship.
This Abundantly Delicious Life 
That quote is So beautiful Vicki, my father use to say that my daughter had the gift of gentleness. She still does at twelve and it is her gift. Your photo is lovely.
What a beautiful gift for your daughter to have – and for your father to notice it and speak it to you. Lovely. Thank you for sharing.
This is beautiful and your poem made me tear up. You have a gift.
Blair
