2.11.10 {renewal}

A lot of people find renewal in the rainbow. 

But I have a thing for sunrises.  

While most people would rather be in bed sleeping at this time of day, I hate to miss it.

Maybe it's the unpredictability of them. 

The way that the light shimmers through breaks in scattered clouds.  Or sometimes streams up from behind cottony clouds.  The brilliant fiery oranges, pastel pinks and purples. 

You never know what you're gonna get or when you're gonna get it.  

This one happened to be right outside my building at school.  Even the dark greens and blues of this sunrise were alluring.  As always, it's hard to capture the majesty of it. 

Still.  Nothing that reminds me more of the ability to start fresh everyday than what's right there in front of me at the beginning of every day.  God's canvas.  Symbolic of his forgiveness and the best reminder that he will always be there.

I'm here.  Not sure why I fell off but planning to do some retroactive posts.  These pics were actually from late January.

2.9.10 {busy, busy}

It's kind of funny how I can give a bunch of *cool* teenagers some glue, construction paper and scissors and they all turn into little kids again.

2.7.10 {playing store}

Who put the two year-old in charge of money?

2.5.10 {i want dadddeeee!}

Mornings are tough for Lyss. 

She doesn't like to get out of bed and then when she's up the only place she wants to be is in Daddy's arms.

She doesn't want to eat, doesn't want to get dressed or go to school.  She just wants Daddy.

"I do it mySELF!"

1.30.10 {yesterday}

Nothing suits Ollie better than a private sunray. Except maybe some chicken.

1.29.10 {safety first}

Gotta keep your baby doll safe in the car.

1.28.10 {peek}

Just a little peek in the window at preschool after I dropped the little monkey off. She goes right over to the shelf almost everyday when I leave.  See her right there on the floor in front of it?
