Two years...


Two years of some of the best, sweetest snuggles.
Two years of thinking "I am so lucky" because of him being such a good sleeper, so laid back and cuddly.
Two years of dinosaurs, super heroes and robots making their way into my pink world. :)
Two years of kissing this cute little face off every chance I get.
Two years and I can not imagine my life without my favorite boy in it.
I am so blessed to be his Mama.

Words....












For my entire adult life, I have been a girl who documents the every day. Usually with scrapbooking...which I miss, terribly.
Lately it's been with these three random journals. I love having a "home" for Katie's silly antics, and I love an art journal that has creativity prompts like the black and white page above. (And I completed one of the prompts "crack the spine of this journal" while I took this picture. ) :)
I really do think it's important to document the every day. :) Katie reminded me of how important that is tonight, when she looked through one of our scrapbooks and wanted me to read all of the journaling on each page.
She loves hearing about "her story", and I realize how many little moments I would forget if I didn't record them somewhere.

Do you journal, or scrapbook? What's your way of documenting life?

There are few feelings in this world as good as being inspired.
Inspired by people, by love, by beautiful words, by possibilities and by life.
I love it. :) And because I am always searching for it, here are a few images of things that inspired me lately.

I'm always inspired by art....I am not an artist, I don't have the talent for it. But it gives me goosebumps and butterflies at times. :) (Can someone have an artist's soul without actually being an artist??)
I will always be inspired by quotes, by thoughts.
If you have a pretty image to share please do!
