Journaling Reads:
I’m not known for my sense of humor.
I don’t laugh very often.
Except when I am with you.
You make me smile and laugh
every single day, my son.
Thank you for bringing so much
joy into my life.
Thank you.

Journaling Reads:
When I was expecting you, everyone told me to be prepared.
Your brother would be jealous, they said.
He will act out.
I knew they were wrong, but I kept quiet.
You’ll see, they said.
All kids do.
Well, I was right, of course.
You have the best brother in the world.
The day after you were born,
he was already reading stories to you.
And giving you kisses.
You are so lucky, my boy.
And so am I.

Journaling Reads:
My sister, Yona, doesn’t visit very often.
In fact, the last time she was here was seven years ago
and the last time she saw you was almost three years ago.
So, I was very excited when she decided to come see us.
Once she arrived and you saw all the presents she brought
(and there were many!)
you were instant best friends.
But the best memories you and Yona made
were over blowing kisses.
She taught you how to blow and catch kisses
and you two spent hours playing that game.
“It went on the ceiling,” she shouted.
“It went inside my tummy,” you shrieked.
And you laughed and laughed.
David, it makes me so happy
to see you and my sister share a special bond.
I hope it lasts forever.
Here’s the wonderful David reading to his little brother. Isn’t he awesome?
And Nathaniel doing tummy time.
Long day here. Nathaniel wouldn’t sleep even after a trip to the park. David peed in his bed. The mailman came but didn’t leave the packages so we had to drive to the post office to get them. Ugh.
Look at the little feet and hands!! I love them. I need to photograph a lot more baby parts. Mini photo shoot for my boy.
And here’s the smiley boy. He’s such a sweetheart.
And David is sweet as always too. I love him love him love him. A rough start today. Nathaniel wouldn’t sleep from 5:30am to 1pm. But then passed out finally. And he’s slept 3 times since then. Sleeping now. I got a bunch done tho. Wrote my journaling for the June layouts for a Million Memories and organized a lot of stuff using Evernote and even packed a box. Got lots lots lots more to do of course but making slooooow progress.
This is David’s I am looking at you but not listening face. Can’t help but love the boy. He’s loving being back at school; it’s a shame we only have one more week and that’s it for the year.
And here’s the little one who had a rough day today. Not enough naps.
I got some work done today, cleaned up a bit and watched Marley and Me and Yes Men. And some quality family time. All in all, good day!
Look at the little boy. He’s so alert and content. He had his one-month checkup today and all is wonderful. He’s 21 inches and 8lbs 3oz. Yey! Growing wonderfully. He was in such a good mood. Even when he had his Hepatatis shot, he only cried for two minutes.
And David is back at school. Yey!!
Got a lot of work done today cleaning up. Not that you can tell at all…oh well.
This week’s question was “If you had a free day with NO restrictions…what would you choose to do?”
Family. Art. Books. Sleep. Honestly, it’s all I ever need.
I am combining Emily Falconbridge’s art journal questions with trying a new technique each week. You can see the full list: here.
This week’s question was “what is your latest obsession?”
Ahem. A bit embarrased to answer this one but I’ve been obsessed with twitter a lot lately and it seemed appropriate…
Some ink, chipboard bird painted with glimmery paint, and some letters and bling.

This week’s question was “What gives me hope?””
I am in the middle of big changes in my life. Lots of new beginnings and exciting possibilities. They are making me giddy with excitement and hope. It’s like the first day of school. The clean notebooks. All that possibility. All that hope of starting over and getting it right this time around. That’s how I feel.
Just cut out some papers and added some bling for this one. And a butterfly of course.
