"Both abundance and lack of abundance exist simultaneously in our lives as parallel realities. It is our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend...when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present- love, health, family, friends, work, joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us happiness- the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth."

Our favorite "Halleisms":
- "When I grow up, I'm gonna do the twist!" (in a discussion about what she wants to be when she grows up)
- "Mom, can I have a Popsylop?" (lollipop or popcicle - she couldn't decide)
- "Halle, where did you put ____?" "It's playing hide-and-seek" (translation: she can't find it)
- "Mommy, I can't see you when you don't have your glasses on."
- Let's go down the elligator (elevator).
- "Mommy, I'm all finished, and I'm done too!"
- "Mommy, the trampoline lost it's boing" (Papa took the trampoline apart for the winter)
- "Look! Samantha knows milk in Spanish" (sign language)
- "What will I do if I grow up? I'm still a little girl."
- "Mommy, I think we both need some chocolate."
- Mom says: "Holy cow, it's snowing again." The next day Halle says, "it's snowing cows, Mom."
- "I'm not your princess, daddy. I don't have my dress on."
- Dad says, "this meal is very delicious." Halle says, "this meal is barely 'alicious."
