Four days ago I started this post and it was going to be a post about taking care of myself and so I can better take care of those around me, but now all that thinking, four whole days ago, seems like a distant thought. My friend over at Clove’s Corner wrote a great little essay about the exact things that I’ve been thinking about. Check it out here. She often takes the words out of my mouth, and I think that after I read her writing, I feel like I’ve purged a post of my own. I suppose it’s just nice to have a ‘friend’ that feels the same way I do. (Friend in quotes because we’ve never actually met….).
Some really great things have happened lately: we went to Harrison Hot Springs to celebrate Audrey’s birthday, we had a birthday/playdate celebration with the A-Town posse, Barry’s parents came for a great visit, and Brian and Darcy got engaged. Life is full to the brim these days, and by the end of the day, when I have a moment to write about it, I hardly have enough energy to sit down and tap a few words out. So, I chicken-scratch these posts together in hopes that the images and a few words will be enough to remember all the joy and love we feel. Hopefully I can remember between the lines.
Maybe it’s the two cups of coffee I had this morning, or the fact that the house is quiet, but my brain can’t quite settle itself into any sense of a pattern to write. So I won’t. Until next time.
1) I know! We must look at the same stars at night; there have been so many times you have posted exactly what I was thinking. And then I don’t feel like I need to!
2) Can’t believe Audrey’s already one. Happy Birthday kiddo!
3) Love all the people who love on your kids.
These are perfect for my dose of lovely shots of all of you we love from the far reaches of paradise!!
