Roses. Beautiful roses.
This is the kind of stuff that happens around here when I am working. Little boy walks around with his toy and laughs at me.
And then plays with his legos.
And then hears my voice, and smiles again.
My older boy will not look at the camera without making a silly face.
And then smiles after a lot of begging.
But the best part of today was that Nathaniel is finally walking around. I mean more than one or two steps here and there. He’s really walking for a few seconds. And trying it again and again.
I tried really hard to capture it but I cannot do a good job. The joy of watching your kid walk for the first time is indescribable.
I still remember David’s first walk. And it still brings tears to my eyes. I feel extra blessed today. Just remembering the value of everyday little moments.
Note to Self:
I haven’t gotten organized for the layout a day. I am thinking should i do something creative a day but then I think that’s a cop out. But then I tell myself it’s not about random rules and that I am doing this for myself and not anyone else and can’t I just let it go. I go on and on in my head. I’m such a basket case sometimes. And if it’s this complicated, shouldn’t that be a sign? Well so I am still planning on doing this. And the plan, for now, is to take it one day at a time. Let’s see how that goes. Without overplanning. Not my style but maybe that’s what I need right now. Something more whimsical and something different.
Ps: Oh and I meant to mention that we’re having a weekend long crop at AMM this weekend. BIg prizes! Come join us.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am so grateful to be able to be at home to get to experience the milestones and the everyday moments with my kids.
2. I am grateful that I live close to work. I had to go in to work today for a security thing and I was grateful to be able to do it quickly and with both kids in tow.
3. I am grateful for people who let me help them. I find it a privilege to help people and it gives me a boost of happiness. So I am always grateful when someone comes to me for help or allows me to help.
Two Things David’s Grateful For:
1. Grateful for getting some yummy snacks at the fair at school.
2. Grateful for playing with legos! (seriously, they’ve become an obsession here)
