How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard. He leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul." Psalm 23:2-3. How is that possible?

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard. A bit soul-less and blah. Right now I'm feeling a bit soul-less. That sounds so awful, I know, but I'm not for sure how else to describe my insides right now. Life is good, but I'm quite blah. Part of this feeling is coming from feeling VERY pregnant right now. Physically, I'm out of breath, I have heartburn no matter what I eat (including cereal, weird! Am learning what it means to truly seek forgiveness and honestly grant it.

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard. I realize I had taken the time to write down my experience as a new mom with Gram more than I have with Owen. It only makes sense, right? And loves to snuggle. Oh, the snuggles! Welcome Owen Klarke into the world and into our lives and hearts. You are ours forever and we love you completely.

You make beautiful things.You make beautiful things out of us. You make things new.you are making me new.". We sing this song at Evergreen and I love it.

http://kelli-girl.blogspot.com/2012/10/a-rich-relationship.html
How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard. There are so many things about being a mom that have been completely unexpected - the extent of exhaustion; the influence that gas has on their tiny tummies and big moods; the long, long road of teething; sleep training; the ungodly length of time I can stare at a sleeping baby.just to name a few.

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard. Selfish vs. Sacrifice. What I have realized is that I need a new way of thinking about my household and my days. My perspective is often focused on keeping up, trying to get ahead (yeah right! It's been over 3 years now that I've been a mom and I still feel the tug-of-war inside me, selfish vs. sacrificial. Does that feeling ever go away? These seem to be polar opposite feelings and yet they both reside inside me.

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard. Happy 4th Birthday Gram! I know I will say this with each birthday, but wow, I can't believe you're 4! I remember the day you were born, I remember when you were still in my belly, I remember when I could hold you with just one arm. You were so tiny. And now you are so big! You are tall and have long legs and big feet and are getting so heavy to carry. You are such a good big brother! I can finally say that with complete truth!

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard. Happy 2nd Birthday Owen! You are strength my son. Pure strength. I get so frustrated at your strength at times. I want you to conform, to give in, to be like everyone else. But you aren't. You are so much your own person. I have loved seeing YOU emerge day after day for the last two years and I look forward to more and more of you in my life. Thank you for your sweet smile, kisses and big hugs. I love you my boy.
