small

Last week we were fortunate to have the opportunity to spend the week with family on Mound Desert Island, and Acadia National Park.  It was busy and fun (like all vacations will lots of small people about), and in looking back on the week I realize just how beneficial the time was.  Before we left I was in a funk of feeling overwhelmed with parenting stuff, and house stuff, and all those nasty feelings that can build up if I let them.

There's nothing like the vastness of ocean and mountains to put things back into perspective.    

We really are such small pieces of this huge planet.
