Beauty Is...

... the Reflections Program. Bud and Rosie each created two great projects for Reflections this year. Bud took an awesome picture of the moon and made a fabulous film about the zoo using video and photos. He narrated it himself, I tried to add it to this post, but the file was too large. Rosie took a beautiful picture of flags at Olympic Park and wrote a sweet and quirky poem.

Beauty Is...

Beauty is the beach waiting for the happy children to play.

Beauty is the sunset bursting with reds, yellows and pinks.

Beauty is peacocks with bright colors parading all around.

Beauty is a garden with colorful flowers everywhere.

Beauty is all the toys made with love and care.

Beauty is every animal, with different shapes, sizes, colors and sounds.

Beauty is my house that is warm and cozy.

Beauty is a rainbow glowing after the rain.

Beauty is a butterfly spreading its wings.

Beauty is everywhere from the mountaintops to the deep blue sea!

Our elementary school had a record number of entries and so the judges had a lot of great projects to choose from. (Thank you to my sisters and sister-in-law for helping judge!) Bud won for his film about the zoo, unfortunately, Rosie didn't win. After shedding many tears, she made her own trophy. To us, they will always be winners!
