A Song of Peace

2013 04 15_2684web

I’d like to build a world a home and furnish it with love.
Grow apple trees and honey bees and snow white turtle doves.

I’d like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony.
I’d like to hold it in my arms, and keep it company.

I’d like to see the world for once all standing hand in hand.
And hear them echo through the hills for peace throughout the land.

I’d like to teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony.
A song of peace that echoes on, and never goes away.

Sending my love and prayers to the people of Boston.  Peace, Kelly

About Me

Hi There! I’m Kelly. I am a wife, mom, light seeker, homemaker, and storyteller. From an empty nest to an abundant life, all it took was a little time, a lot of faith, and the courage to see my life differently.

You can read more about my story here.

So now, armed with my trusty Canon camera, here is where I share my journey to live an inspired and intentional life.

Welcome to my little corner of the interwebs!
