take better care of me (read all 16 entries…)
Earlier this afternoon I was feeling bruised 14 months ago

Knowing what I felt and wondering how much am I wrong about in life. It got me to questioning lots of things I thought I was sure of. But to counter all of that, I went to my parents.

Adam {brown baby number 2} was there and not the least bit happy, every one was busy cooking and trying to calm him down {his parents are at the lake having some VERY important alone time} So I took Adam to say he settled in my arms easily is an understatement.

He was not happy and damn it all to hell no one was going to make him feel any better either. He was unhappy so he was making sure ever one around him was not feelin’ the love either.

he cried, I soothed…{my sister called me a sucker with evil laughter} he cried more, LOLOL I told him to get it all out, you go on ahead and tell me baby, tell me just how pissy the world is and get it all out.

Before I knew it I was sitting there all comfy with the little man all snuggled up to me all comfy {no more crying}. His eyes were getting heavy and mine have been up since two this morning so I was not in the best of moods. but there we were, just the two of us, among all those people.

We hit our calm stride, Adam and I must have sat there for near two hours just looking at everyone as they passed, content and happy to be in one another’s arms. He felt safe and slowly drifted to sleep.

I pulled him closer… nothing makes you feel worthwhile as a baby does. Thank God Adam was there for me to love on, he was just what I needed.

I tried to get a good picture of his little hands but the angle I was at and holding him, they turned out sucky, but I tried.

I really miss that too baby.

I cherish those moments with the babies, I don’t get them to often but better than when then the time mine were that age.

It’s just such unconditional love with children. It’s amazing how just holding them ha a calming affect on me.

Calissa wonders why she's so tired lately.

That was lovely, Serenity.

It’s nice to have someone you can share a moment like that with.

Oh Sweetness

Babies are such good medicine. I am thankful for both the new babies in my family.

Their light hearts and easy ability to just absorb love while giving it back in strong measure, is amazing to me.

Is spring coming now, is the weather getting warmer and the birds coming out and about now.

Calissa wonders why she's so tired lately.

You bet it is.

My lavender has blooms over every available inch and my garden is bursting with freesias, bluebells and irises.

I went for a walk up in the hills this afternoon. There’s a pair of connected hills I can see from my bedroom. They’re mostly just long brown grass, but at the top of each is a tree. I went up and saw those trees today. I thought of you. The trees are beauties, old and gnarled. I wish I knew what type they were.

OH wow you should take a photo of them

that sounds like such a beautiful place. OH my word your garden is smelling delightful, lavender, freesia, oh bluebells and irises are two of my favorite flower. I never had great luck growing lavender but I keep on trying.

I just love old gnarled trees, I imagine the life they’ve lived to put them in the gnarled state, yet the still stand proud. Makes me want to be that way myself.

Calissa wonders why she's so tired lately.

It would be beautiful if it wasn’t so overrun with grass and weeds. Uni has kept me from getting out there as much as I would have liked.

There’s also a good possibility that I will be moving out in the next few months. I’m going to be sad to leave it behind.

The trees were gorgeous and felt like they had very distinct personalities. One was quite welcoming and the other more aloof.
