today I am…
enjoying:: a morning at home with my kids
photo courtesy of Briony, while hanging out at our house last night
grateful:: for good friends that feel comfortable enough at my house to snap pictures of whatever they’d like
working:: on a fun kid’s closet organization project… I’ll be sharing with you later
making:: myself stop procrastinating and write my little miracle’s birth story… maybe
sorry:: for any men that just saw this photo and had an awkward reaction, you never know what you might get yourself into here
fulfilling:: sweet motherhood duties, like hanging diapers out to dry while the sun is shining on our back deck.
needing:: to finish up some design projects I’m working on for a great work that’s happening in Thailand
amazed:: at how wonderfully my life has changed since my first, my daughter, was born over three years ago, and now, again with the birth of my son
marveling:: at how much the above photo looks like my newborn, but really it’s a photo of Aliyah just days after she was born
glad:: we’ve learned to take better photos
signing:: off here so that I can play, cook, clean, change diapers, nurse, correspond with Thailand, fold laundry, and hopefully take a shower

This post made me smile 🙂 It’s good to remember the things we’re thankful for and to actually write (or type) them down. Congratulations to you and yours and I am looking forward to reading about your daughter’s birth story! I’ve been fascinated with birth stories ever since I read the one by Kelle Hampton. Maybe you know her blog? It’s quite a roller coaster of emotions but really moving…and warning: you may want to have tissues near by because it is guaranteed that you may shed a tear or two if you do decide to read it http://www.kellehampton.com/2010/01/nella-cordelia-birth-story.html
Also, I love the black and white image of your daughter on your chest…beautiful moment 🙂

Enjoy every blissful moment of that baby!

Glad that you were enjoying your morning with your kids and I agree with you that Dolce does need a haircut; it seemed a little long in the picture.
And thank you for sharing the different areas in your life with us.
