My happy place! Everyone has a place, or are searching for that place, that they run to to find their peace and to get centered again. This beautiful place has been mine ever since I was little! I could sit here all day and watch the light change. Or how looks as it plays through the trees and feels as it warms my face. Watching the bugs kiss the water hoping not to get eaten by the hungry fish waiting just below the surface to gobble them up. I could sit quietly hoping to catch a glimpse of a majestic moose, or a meek deer as they come into view to take a drink from the cool mountain waters. Watching the beavers swim to and fro as they busily do their work to keep their house sturdy or just play in the magical waters that they call home. This is where I grew up with my brother and my cousins by my side. Where I learned to fish. Where I learned to explore and be brave. Where I was a kid. Where I have always been myself. Most of my best memories are wrapped in and around this place. This has always been my place. It probably always will be the place I run to when I need to get some perspective, balance, or just need to be one with nature. It feels like home. And looking at this serene place, I'm sure it's not hard to see why.

Love at First Sight Last week was my youngest sons 5th birthday. It has been amazing reflecting on all that’s happened in these 5 years. And how much he’s grown and changed over the years. But lately I have been thinking about the first moment I laid my eyes on him. About how much he looked just like his sister, and just like his daddy. How his first cry, what a wonderful and magical sound that was. I cried when I heard it because I knew in that very moment that he had entered my world. And life as I knew it would forever be different in the best possible way! Family In that very moment my three years of trying to make our little family of three a family of four finally happened. And all of the heartache, struggling every month with infertility and multiple losses was lessened, never to be erased or forgotten, but he made the heartache just a bit less. Now
And then I look at my little man today and feel truly blessed to be his Mommy! I couldn’t imagine my life without either of my kiddos! Trust me, there are days when I want to hide in my closet with chocolate and a glass of wine, don’t get me wrong. ;) But for the most part they really are great kids that don’t give their mom too much grief! |
