A record of the incessant and trivial chatter running through my head.
 Just under a week ago I sent the following text to my friend over at Sassy Times: “I don’t know if V ever does this, but some days M thinks she needs no naps and must be held constantly. Today is one of those days. . . this season passes quickly. . . I should […]     Usually, when the distractions of daily life deplete our energy, the first thing we eliminate is the thing we need the most: quiet, reflective time. Time to dream, time to think, time to contemplate what’s working and what’s not, so that we can make changes for the better. –Sarah Ban Breathnach I couldn’t have said […]  Hasn’t started to make sense of the world yet but thinks it’s beautiful all the same. -Story People I love this picture of Chanelle. I snapped it quickly while we were sitting in the living room and didn’t think much about it. When I came to it later I was struck by the innocence captured […]
 Saturday morning I woke before the sun and looked at the clock: 5:38 a.m. I was so excited to load up the car and get on the road to visit my Dad that I just couldn’t sleep. I stared at the numbers on the clock and listened for the kids feet to hit the floor […]  “We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade the presence of God. The world is crowded with Him. He walks everywhere incognito.” -C.S. Lewis Wishing you a wonderful Easter weekend! |

I will always be your lifeline, friend. 😉
Little did you know, I probably needed to reach out that day too, but didn't. You were meant to show ME that day that I'm not alone either. So, thank you.
And thank you for this today. After yet another no sleep night, my glass is teetering half full. I opened every blind in our house to let the sun shine in, as a reminder that today is still beautiful…even if I'm exhausted and running on coffee (and, well, on the verge of an ugly cry. Ha.)
I'm not sure how I ever found your blog, but I'm happy I did. 😉
That's supposed to say 'half empty'…maybe the blinds open thing IS working? 😉
Oh Summer…so happy that your father-in-law is cancer free! And so happy that this space has helped you to find comfort and friends…we are all here for you!! 🙂
Love your positive thoughts…that's what I've enjoyed every time I come to visit your world. Thank you so much for sharing it!
okay so now I'll be that annoying mom when I say this- I can't tell you enough how fleeting time will be with your lil' ones…I ran into a lady today at Target that is due any day with her 3rd boy- the other 2 are just 4 & 2…It just makes my heart ache for those days…I just want to reverse time to when my boys were that little.
Every phase in our children's lives have it's challenges and are wonderful in their own ways…I just keep finding myself asking "where did 10 years go??" It's just such a mystery to me. Savor every delicious moment of cuddling that sweet baby!! 🙂
You are so right about being thankful! We all have so much to be thankful for. I started a list. Yes most days my glass is half full, but there are days when I just want to say "how much more God?". But we need to cherish all that we have! So thankful I had the opportunity on Sunday to snuggle with two adorable kids in church!
Crinkle eye smile:). Love it.
You warm, revive, renew, inspire, and fill my heart with so much love and thankfulness!! Thank YOU!!
