On the first day of this year we packed up our snow shoes and lunch
and headed to the Sasquatch Mountain Resort, about an hour's drive from our place.
Paeton has been staying with us for part of his break, and he is a good sport to try anything new,
so the fun part was to have him come along.
It's always delightful to see the world through new eyes ...
eyes that have not seen a lot of snow.
I felt like I had to work hard, but
the breathtaking beauty made the trek rewarding.
What a privilege to spend this time together!
We ate our lunch on the trail, watching the skiiers.
But what I loved most, was to see his boyish grin
as we neared the hill where the snowboarders were coming down,
quietly announcing, "This is what I was born for!"
To see life and the world with this in mind,
I think of the opportunities I may grasp in 2023!
Sometimes they may require a leap of faith,
or a love greater than my own,
but to be what I'm called for at this exact time
is what I don't want to miss.

So beautiful! And so nice that you could share this adventure with your grandson!
Mmmm...far is his from Abbotsford? What a beautiful resort. Just snow and trees the way they are. Sharon
