to nobody in particular:
...vacation was great -- we relaxed and relaxed a lot...
...swimming, walking, sleeping, reading, playing, laughing, eating, enjoying, watching, resting, sandcastling...
...that's about it -- relaxing...
...exactly what we needed...
...one of the things that was impressed upon me was "faith like a child" and "fear like a child" -- i saw moments when my kids were stress-free, care-free and totally relying on us for all their needs and desires; and yet i saw moments in which, in situations of clear uncertainty, they were overcome with fear, forgetting about their faithful, trustworthy and loving parents...
...i could expand, but i won't...
...and i don't think i need to spell the connection out in our daily lives -- it preached to me clearly, and i think the recognition of truth can be grasped...

..."you learn something new every day"...
fourteen days ago, i learned: 2:26am to wake up for a flight to vacation in Mallorca is worth it...
thirteen days ago, i learned: yes, there are many Europeans who hang out at the beach topless...
twelve days ago, i learned: neither of the kids have any fear of a fifth floor balcony...
eleven days ago, i learned: Mallorca has a pretty sweet aquarium...
ten days ago, i learned: we booked a hotel on the quieter part of the beach -- thankfully, not on the party end of the beach (as a young family, we would've REALLY stuck out, even more than we already were)...
nine days ago, i learned: Travis doesn't like the ocean, maybe, but he likes the swimming pool...
eight days ago, i learned: more than half over? vacation goes by quickly!...
seven days ago, i learned: push the limits!...
six days ago, i learned: Sarah and i organize and prepare, more than enough in advance, for most things...
five days ago, i learned: the Mallorca airport is nice, but please, clean the men's bathrooms more often!...
four days ago, i learned: i got the gnome!...
three days ago, i learned: booooooo...
two days ago, i learned: God makes sure we come into contact with the right people...
yesterday, i learned: goals are good, and sometimes hard to reach, but just try it anyway...

today, i learned: my family -- parents, siblings, in-laws, nieces and nephews -- are astoundingly awesome (of course, this was more of a refreshing reminder, not newly learned)...
