Noah in his jester winter gear

Noah modelling his new blue and green jester hat, scarf, and mittens.

On Saturday, I finished the hat for a scarf/mitten/hat set, the first two components of which I had completed last winter. The photo of Noah proudly modeling it was in the layout from last week, but here it is again. We could only find one mitten for the photo, so that is why he is only holding up one hand.

Three little boys smiling at the camera

Jude, Jabin, and Noah posing for the camera, Noah still in his jester set.

Of course, as soon as I pull out the camera (which is a daily occurrence now), all the boys want to be in the photo, and then immediately ask "Can I see, Mom?"

But really, who can resist these cherubic smiles?

Finding Gratitude in a Week of Highs And Lows

It’s been a strange week. And by “strange,” I mean it was like there were an extra six really-high highs and kinda-sucky lows stuffed into it without much of a breather between one or the other. So, for posterity, here are the highlights, and a moment to be grateful, too.

No matter your age, it’s not too late to chase your dream. Maybe you’re already doing it, which is awesome. Or maybe we are closing out another year where you have still been making excuses about why you didn’t go for the longing of your heart.

Life is long, but it’s also short. Do you really want to spend a minute of it not living up to your potential?
