Hello!

Or, given the funny French theme that stumbled onto my new blog, should I say “BONJOUR!”?

I’ve been blogging here and there for some time now, but since the recent purchase of a really tubular, makes-me-grin-like-a-kid-on-Christmas-morning camera and the birth of an amazing mohawk-wearing son of mine earlier this year (along with the urging of my Internet-savvy friend with a great story of her own), I felt the strong urge to really blog. Fo’ real. To put myself out there, not behind a wimpy free browser or lots of privacy and hiding, but to really and truly share things from our corner of the world.

I promise adoring stories of being a Mom, stories of love and fun with my husband and all of the ups and downs in between. I love photography, powerful quotes and a wide variety of music, so be prepared for a little bit of all of that whenever you come back to visit.

Feel free to subscribe to my blog on the right hand side of your screen so that you get updates in your e-mail.

And I welcome all thoughts, suggestions, stories and love by e-mail.

Tomorrow equals the official start of this blog, but for now, enjoy a picture of our handsome boy, napping away on Mommy’s lap this afternoon. The way he pulls his fingers into a fist, sighs and quivers in a dream and lays silently in peace brings me such comfort and such strength. It’s times like these that I truly feel I was put on this earth only to be a mother.
