💙 Being a caregiver can fill your heart — but it can also weigh on it. This week’s Understanding Senior Living blog and video dive into one of the most common emotional challenges families face: caregiver guilt.
From second-guessing decisions to feeling like you’re not doing enough, guilt can be overwhelming — but you don’t have to carry it alone. 🌿
At Morning Pointe Senior Living, we walk beside families, helping them reframe guilt into grace and confidence through partnership, communication, and care that truly supports everyone involved.

🌟 A night of standing ovations, laughter, and heart! 🌟
The stage lights may have dimmed at the historic Franklin Theatre, but the excitement from the 7th Annual Morning Pointe Foundation Seniors Got Talent Franklin still lingers! 🎭💙
The evening was packed with unforgettable performances — from Broadway showstoppers and soulful ballads to toe-tapping trios and, yes, even a spoons solo that stole the show. 🥄🎶 Each act carried its own story, reminding us that creativity and passion never fade — they only grow stronger with time.
More than a talent show, it was a night about purpose. Together, our community helped raise a record-breaking almost $40,000 to benefit the Morning Pointe Foundation, providing scholarships for students across Middle Tennessee. 🎓💛
🥇 1st Place - Lucius Talley, 86-year-old spoon player, who gave an impressive performance of "When The Saints Go Marching In" and took home the $1,000 cash prize presented by Morning Pointe Senior Living.
🥈 2nd Place - Brian Hanson, 69-year-old singing pianist, who gave a lively rendition of "Blue Suede Shoes" and went home with the $500 cash prize.
🥉 3rd Place - Randy Spencer, 65, & Cathey Nelson, 63, musical duo that gave an absolute powerhouse duet of "Up Where We Belong" and left with $250 cash prize.
🏅 People's Choice - Gail Valorani, a 69-year-old singer, who sang a heartfelt version of “You Don’t Even Know Who I Am.”
To every performer, sponsor, judge, and supporter — thank you for proving once again that senior talent deserves the spotlight. Here’s to the music, the memories, and the mission that bring us all together. 🌟

🚜🌾 On National Farmer’s Day, we honor the farmers whose work brings fresh, local ingredients to our tables—and we celebrate the gardening spirit alive in our own communities, too!
At Morning Pointe of Brentwood, residents are growing 12 different kinds of tomatoes in the courtyard as part of our Farm-to-Table dining program. Other Morning Pointe communities have taken on similar planting projects, and the best part is always the same—getting to enjoy the fruits of their labor together. 🍅🍽️
Farm-to-Table isn’t just a program, it’s a way for residents to stay connected to the land, savor seasonal flavors, and share the joy of homegrown goodness. 💚

✔️ Quick questions to help you estimate care costs
✔️ Easy checklists to build a clear plan
✔️ Straightforward guidance to fit your budget
