“Happiness is neither virtue nor pleasure nor this thing nor that, but simply growth. We are happy when we are growing.”     ~ William Butler Yeats

I read this quote recently and I love its simple truth. It expresses something I’ve always known, but been completely unaware of knowing. Do you ever feel like that?

After returning home from the pumpkin patch a few weeks back and noticing the happy problem of having too many cute pictures for a blog post, I knew it was time to stretch myself and learn to make a video — time to grow.

I’ve been working on it for weeks. Though it’s not the HD clarity my perfectionist nature craves, seeing it here makes me happy. Enjoy my first attempt at telling a story on vimeo…

…with special thanks to my dear husband for providing more technical assistance than I’d like to admit. I have just enough creativity to begin a multitude of projects, but (being the professional Project Engineer that he is) he has the patience, persistence and know-how to see them to completion.
