friday morning: gorgeous day with so many beautiful choices
it's a norah jones kinda day. her and mark anthony. feeding the little guy some "tender young green beans" while dancing to our own rhythm. i love moments like these. watching him explore the world i expose him to. it's mornings like this that remind me of a conversation i once had with a very special friend. she reminded me of an important and wonderful fact:
parenting is the most creative role we'll ever have.
and you know what, as much as that mere fact scares me some times, it's all good.
i AM capable of such love.
of such creativity.
of enjoying
and teaching him how to enjoy the simpler things in life. choices...they're all our own. i sometimes forget that. that we've been endowed with such power. to LOVE. to BE strong. to strengthen. and most beautifully: to have a sound mind through it all. today i choose to soak in the sun . to dance with my baby. to be in the here and now and let life guide me on the journey that is all uniquely
mine.
plus i have the best fan everrr. he'll laugh and smile at anything i do.
even if i do have raw morning breath, 3 day old pijamas, two different colored socks and
crazy hair.
AND
there's daffodils growing in our yard
sweet.ness
