When I spoke with Nancy, she informed me that her desire was to create an event that would provide women (Mothers, Daughters, Sisters and Friends) with the tools and resources to claim their own power.  This is my interpretation anyway.

If you are in the Calgary Area, please do come and play.  There’s going to be a room full of beautiful and inspiring women…both speaking and in the audience.

Each of the live cams is on a Bald Eagle Nest in BC, Canada.  The first one has chicks!  The other two nests have eggs that the parents have been caring for.  As of earlier this evening the eggs have not hatched.

Beautiful!

I was speaking to my son the other night about the miracle of life.  He asked me how, when the baby is in the tummy, it gets arms and legs.  I tried to explain some of it, but it was hard!  I ended up at “it’s truly a miracle how it happens.” 

And it really is!  All of it!

It’s a miracle that the trees know to grow.  The whole growing process of plants, animals, and how the sun and earth interact.  It’s all absolutely amazing.

What do I do for Mother Earth?  I’ve been learning more about how to be green. I recycle. I compost. I’m installing the “green” light bulbs in my house.  When it’s warm enough, I put my clothes out on a line rather than using the dryer.

I found out, the other day, how there’s two green communities being built near me.  One’s in Clear Lake, Alberta.  They are exclusive lake front properties being built by Mike Holmes of Holmes on Homes.  He’s done some building down in New Orleans too.  Some really neat stuff!  He’s also building a green community of about 450 homes in Okotoks, Alberta too.  Oh…did you know Mike’s Canadian?   

What are you doing to show your appreciation for Mother Earth?

Do you have any tips about going green?
