Distracted

I've been very distracted this week for lots of reasons--John still getting adjusted to his job, me getting adjusted to my job again (mama without a nanny), Celia riding (or not riding) her horse, and my beautiful niece getting engaged and being part of the process.

I'll let you see the process . . .

 
The start of the Engagement Walk . . . Cody was up the hill waiting for Hannon . . . (the white dots in the photo is SNOW)

 
Walking up the hill trying really hard not to tell Hannon . . .


 
The hiding while the Proposal Happened . . . 

 
And here they are . . . Engaged . . . 


 
The Congratulations . . . 



 
The Family Selfie . . . BEAUTIFUL MOMENT

 
And Us with Evie . . . because it's too darling not to add to the beauty of the day


 
The Triumphant Decent (leaving the newly engaged behind)


 
And Finishing up the evening with Easter Egg dying . . . 

Isn't it beautiful?

A new beginning . . . a new start.

Spring . . . Easter Weekend . . . is the perfect time for an Engagement.

    Congratulations to Hannon and Cody. It's a brave step and sometimes a steep climb, and that's how strong, loving partnerships go and grow. And I speak from almost 49 years of experience! (Thanks for sharing the news, Mary.)
    Congratulations to Jayne and York and family too! It's a new beginning for all!
    Love and blessings,
    Paula and David Thomas

oh how things change

It's amazing how having a big old stressers changes everything.  Things you thought were super important seem so silly and things I took for granted seem so precious and important.  I feel like I've been blind, and now I see. I was listening to one of my friends talk about weight loss and how to get her extra five pounds off and how often she things about it.  I looked down at my belly and thought, I can't remember the last time I even thought about my body or my wrinkles or my sagging places.  With a whole new set of much more pressing worries, physical appearance has gone out the window.  Not completely, of course; I still want to be look my best, but my best has changed.  My best is smiling.  My best is a good day where I can easily smile and laugh.  My best is a daily prayer of gratitude that we've gone another day healthy and well. Today, that changed.  Finn's been complaining of a pain in his leg since May and for about a week, he walke...

What I miss the very mostest about being young is that ability to forget everything but the very moment you are in. If you are tired, you sleep. If you are hungry, you eat. If you want to read, you pick up a book and read. If you want to watch a movie/show/tv, you sit your little butt down and watch. If you're a mama, you have to think about nine thousand things before you do anything. If you are tired, you stay tired because you just don't have time to sleep. If you are hungry, you'd better go grocery shopping and get cooking because no one is really going to eat if you don't. If you want to read . . . well, you always want to read, but the laundry, cleaning, weeding, talking, caring, fixing, loving must happen before that happens. If you want to watch a movie, well, you can try, but really, you probably will just fall asleep. And be so happy for that sleep because you know, if you're me and you only watch tv with your whole family surrounding y...
