today's treasures

a few simple things that brightened my day, and then some...

1. a nature bundle

alright. so this time i won't be too hard on myself should i not make it the full year. because, well, as we know--life happens and it's been a bit since i last did this...and really this is much more for my own memories than anything else. thus, without further ado...

well, that didn't last long, did it? i had so many good intentions to actually follow through with this plan to take weekly pictures, alas, life happens and if we've learned anything the past few years, it's that you just have to roll with the punches and shake it off.

so we're back, eight weeks later (goodness!) with another 'weekly portrait' of my girls. i'm trying to be more organized lately--writing every single thing i need to remember down in my planner--so here's to hoping i'll be able to make it from here on out ;)

david and i were talking the other night about remembering. remembering this season in our life to be exact. as much as i am restless in knowing this apartment, this city, this community is all temporary, i want to soak it all in--to bottle it up, the feeling of it all. because in the blink of an eye, it will all be gone. hadley will be older, baby girl #2 will be born and grown, david and myself wrinkled and grey. it's all so so precious and so fleeting.

which is one of the main motivations for me to keep this blog up--to remember, to record and capture moments before they have disappeared from time and memory. inevitably, though, that is the reality of life and we must let it run this course.

all that being said, each week of this year i will be taking a picture of my girls, all two of them and posting the images here. this year will be a sweet one to capture, as we transition from a family of three to four. i love the idea of seeing hadley and her little sister's friendship unfold week after week in portraits all gathered up here in one place. i know i will treasure and be thankful for those collected memories.

and i hope you enjoy as well.
