Marilee and Evy are part of my upcoming celebration of Mother's Day. For those who have followed Evy's progress, can you believe this? She is still a miracle girl!

You're the Best! I miss you so much. Did you take a quick trip from the other side to help as I accompanied the children singing on Sunday? Thanks for everything you ever gave me, Royce, my beloved piano teacher and friend!

Thought to Ponder
- "To be nobody-but-yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody but yourself--means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight--and never stop fighting." -- e. e. cummings
ABOUT ME *
My name is Janet and I live in the beautiful Salt Lake valley bordered on the east by the Wasatch mountains and on the west by the Oquirrh mountain range. The Great Salt Lake is north and west of where I live.
My husband Art and I have been married for 50 plus years--hard to believe!
I have a quirky sense of humor, I am more creative than organized,I like to teach and listen, I love being in nature and I like to write.
I love the ocean, holding hands with Art, the smell of autumn leaves, being in the mountains or in red rock country, the sound of water, each shade of green in the UK, being with good friends and hearing music that touches my heart
You will often find me reading, doing handwork, scrapbooking, watching PBS, or, more likely than not, sitting at the computer. I enjoy journaling and music, especially learning more about how to play the cello.
This site is dedicated to noticing the good in life.
Love and blessings, Janet
Good Listening

Evy is, indeed, a miracle baby. I think we all are; just depends on the day, and waht has occurred within it. Thanks for being my mom!
