An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane. I don't know if the legend is true, but I wished for a wonderful and wedding and it truly was.
Folding the cranes was a really wonderful experience. Every night as I folded the cranes, I had time to think and reflect and it ended up being very peaceful. Plus, the cranes on strings looked fabulous! Check out the tabs on the left to see pictures of my cranes and have a sneak peek at some of my wedding photos.
When I started folding the cranes, my son, Dominic, told me about a wonderful book he read in school. It was about a young girl who attempted to fold a 1,000 cranes. It's a touching and inspiring story and I really don't want to give away any spoilers! I bought a copy of the book and donated it to my school library. I told my students if they check the book and read it they should tell me and I will ask them a secret question. If they know the answer to my secret question I will give them a prize and fold them a crane!
Catch ya later!
