The Circle of Life
In the movie The Lion King, a mighty child is presented and named. Several years later his Son is held up and presented the same way. Many of us experience that feeling when we become parents. The Circle of Life to complete the journey from child to parent is one of our greatest achievements.
Parenting has been described as a race with no finish line. As a parent we provide the critical link between our roots and our legacy. The legacy you create is not about what you take with you but what you leave behind.

Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle
