a collision of cuteness


I was questioned by a certain older sister as to why I had no photos of my nephews on this blog. These were from Easter weekend and the collage currently occupies a picture frame that sits on the left-hand corner of my desk at work. (maybe now i'll be considered for that "auntie of the year" award...)

as winter melts away...

... it is time for a poem about spring. (and a face lift of the blog title!) "spring" Just when I have resolved that winter will not release its fierce and frozen grip, birds begin their chirping beneath dripping eaves, and the smallest drop of sun sinks through wet snow to a ground ready to send forth growth so green I wonder if my eyes have studied a brighter color. Grace, in this tangible way, seeps into my earthen heart; when the everyday appears eternally impassive and stiff, something new begins from deep below the icy crust, and I see spring.

holy week






pictures taken during "24", a 24-hr prayer event at emmaus. a reminder for this week--a week of death and Life.

what's mac wearing this week?



hmm. I amuse myself. I just came up with this little random idea about posting a random picture that is on my desktop right now. and since I'm working on a mac, I figured that instead of saying something like, "this is my desktop image at the moment," I would rather post in the form of a question and have YOU ask, "what's mac wearing this week?" you'll get the answer by looking at the above picture.

good idea? we'll see if it carries through for the long haul. peace out!

ella









if I'm so excited to put these pictures up on my blog, I'm not sure why it's taken so long. these pictures marked Ella's first birthday back in February. she kept climbing onto me to get closer to the camera (she's quite tech-savvy). we had a fun time. :)

p.s. my favorite is the one when Ella is taking a juice break. photo shoots are hard work!
