I love taking pictures. Sometimes I'm silly and tell Brett I wish my eyes would function like a camera. I could blink and capture an image instantly. Wouldn't that be neat?
I like pictures so much because there's just something about capturing special little moments here and there that add up to such a happy hodgepodge life.
My mom and dad pointed out these birds outside the window and I ran to get a different lens for the camera to try to capture them. Just gorgeous! I love yellow, it is definitely my favorite color. Of course I could find all sorts of inspirational meaning in a photo like this.....the bright color in the midst of all that dreary grey. Like spring for the soul.
We are a book loving family. More than anything though, we're a kid loving family. We try to keep the house where most things are okay for the girls to get and play with. One day I spotted Anna Ruth reaching to look at some of my books.......special.
We also love music! I don't even remember what the name of this instrument is but Anna's "Uncle Jack" brought it over one day. It is a favorite of hers to get down off the shelf and play. She also likes to play the piano and we sing all day long it seems. I feel rather like Julia Andrews a lot of the time. Which is just funny because I remember saying once I would "Never teach kindergarden because they sing so much." Never say never.
Betsy Grace's smile is one of the most special, favorite parts of my days. Her eyes are piercing, she loves a good staring session. Well really both our girls do. They have a serious look down pat. But there's something about Betsy's smile...it just melts you. She's a snuggler too, which I like a lot. I could cuddle her all day!
Jelly nose....having breakfast for dinner-Anna Ruth's favorite!
{What special moments are filling your days?}
Anna Ruth followed me outside one day and I looked up to see this lovely sight. Isn't she hysterical? She had put her baby doll dress on her head, placed just so........I guess for a hat?! So, so funny.
Another special moment, indeed!
