The in between

Life.  Life is such a funny thing at times.  There are moments of absolute certainty and others where you find yourself so perplexed that you can barely tell up from down.  The last few months have been the latter for me. This year has been insane.  There has been so much change in my life.  As a result,  I've been doing a lot of self evaluation lately. I have been looking at every aspect of my life.  I am trying to steam line and organize everything.  Naturally, I've been doing a lot of thinking about this space .  . why do I blog and is it beneficial?  Is it helping me be a better person, a better mother, a better friend or a wife?  Truthfully, I can't answers these questions.  I do know, for whatever reason, I enjoy blogging.  It is sort of a weird hobby.  I mean lots of people don't feel the need to share about their life in a public forum.  I am not sure why, but I really enjoy documenting my life and sharing projects and such.   The truth is, this site is just sliver of my life.  I can't and don't share everything.  After lots of thought, for the time being, I am going to keep this site up.  I feel like I need to.  I realize this is odd but in some small way this site helps me stay grounded or at least helps me remember why I do what I do.   It is a way for me to celebrate the parts of my life that are good and that I want to remember.   A life isn't built through all the stress, worry, heartbreaks and let downs of living.  No, it is made up of all the little moments in between.   Life is the joy of a good conversation, hearing your children's laughter, the beauty of nature and the wonder of creating something with your own two hands.  For me, that is what this blog is.  A place to document and remember the perfect little pieces of my life.  A place to save and share beauty, joy and accomplishment.

In honor of the little things, here are some photos of lovely in between this weekend . . .




















And, just for fun . . .


Yes, being chased by a wild toddler really is terrifying.
