Chatter from the edge of the petals. Is a crazy talented photographer and took some belly photos of me as a gift yesterday morning. in the afternoon, she sent these 2. It was so fun, the hidden away seaside spot she took us was AMAZING. it was 65 and at some point in the day my arms got pink. THAT is how you know you had a long winter, you get a sunburn on the first real springy day. Moving to our new, big house. Saying smell ya later, you cramped, noisy, smelly apartment. Today i woke up at 4:30am.

Chatter from the edge of the petals. Today was a love my life kinda day. nothing special, just lots of special moments. Doctoring adam's ripped and torn paper dragon from his chinese new year celebration at preschool. the streamers keep falling off, he plays it so much. he held the "legs" in place while i glued and taped. again. and again. Shoveling snow, breathing cold air into my warm body. it snowed all day long. making a snowman with adam, snow angels, letting him "help" with the shovel. Adam telling...

Chatter from the edge of the petals. Very thankful for today:. Healthy, happy, thoughtful, spirited, compassionate little boy, who knows right from wrong and almost always chooses the right, is respectful and excited about the smallest things in life. Sweet, round, happy, easy going baby girl who loves to snuggle and play, observe and listen, imitate and also be herself. Friends who become my family-away-from-family. Ability to see when someone needs help and the strength, despite everything, to offer it.

Chatter from the edge of the petals. Me: luke just called me. Said you asked his new gf if she had ever heard a horse fart! I asked all of them that, not her specific. I've noticed the moon all week. the pretty grey clouds framing it a couple nights ago. its movement across our sky. Tonight someone emailed me: enjoy the bright moon tonight! I ran to windows in my house. nothing. more windows. more nothing. I ran, almost exasperated out the backdoor and stopped quick. it was directly over me. Just one mor...

Chatter from the edge of the petals. Another goodbye to eric. Tickets to day out with thomas soon. Vacation planning for august, list making. Floors, toilets, piles of laundry, garage, filing. getting back in order after our big change, marin, this summer is making me feel more grounded. Watching little baby vegetables grow in my garden every day with adam - tomatillos, tomatoes, cukes, greens. Teaching six classes a week, my most ever, feeling it in my body. Ain't this just like the present,. Let us sta...

Chatter from the edge of the petals. I have heard before that a kitchen is like the belly of the house. i agree with this - i realized the other day that one sweeping glance of our kitchen reveals just about all that you need to know about our family and what a hodge podge of things we are. isn't that one of the things that makes beauty - contrast? My mama painted that picture. Eric sends us postcards from every port call. this one was our first. My husband travels like yours and things are SO hard!
