She is a reason to celebrate. She is a joy. She brings sunshine in to any room.

She is smart. She is sassy. She is silly. She is sophisticated and magnificent.

She nurtures. She gardens. She calls her friends to play in the fields of excellence.

She knows what's important. She never seems to hurry and yet all of her 'everything' seems to get done.

She dances. She laughs. She sings. She can take an ordinary nothing & turn it into an extraordinary something.

She knows that in answering one need she serves the world. She invests in herself & others.

She is an expert at practicing the pause. She holds her own truth while honoring the knowing of others.

She is both elegant and outrageous. Her shoes are the envy of all. She is an inspiration.

She walks before to guide, behind to protect & beside to uplift and she laughs.

She is at ease with rulers or riff-raff. She listens to herself and others. Childrean and dgs like her especially well.

She lifts others up. She is courageus and never uses the word, 'failure' -- she just tries another way.

She is a purposeful risk taker. She is a warrior. She plans and prepares while recognizing chaos is inevitable.

You are reason to celebrate, every day and each season.

Celebrating the qualities that illustrate the greatness of women.
