There is such a shift in feeling just outside our window. That's not even close to the exhilaration of being on top of a mountain you've just climbed. <br /><br />I can't wait to read your kids' pieces. Explicitly stating beliefs is hard and valuable work.

My grandfather used to keep his house shut tight year 'round. He also kept the heavy drapes closed and turned on the lamps - even when it was a beautiful sunny day outside. I would sit there and cringe. Our house does not have any curtains and the few blinds we do have are rarely used.
