The Mama

This weekend was The Mama's long anticipated retreat weekend.

A little modified as I came home each night to nurture Cary. Big thanks to The Daddy for single-parenting and GrandMom Tina for her support.
This was a reunion retreat with fellow educators. Beginning about 4 years ago, I attended a series of Courage to Teach retreats (based on the teachings of Parker Palmer - www.couragerenewal.org ). Boy, has my life changed since then. It was wonderful to reconnect with some friends and have some time for *silent* reflection.
Here is the scene when I left Saturday morning and a few pictures from our beautiful retreat spot.

Theresa and Frank...beautiful music, wish we could have had the whole weekend with them!
