(this moment) and 'Keeping it Real'


A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. 
A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. 
If you're inspired to do the same, link your 'moment' in the comments for all to find & see.


Inspired by Soulemama


************************************************************************************************************
This week, I'm joining monica with:

Keeping it Real #1

Shadows:
computer running low on start up disk memory
silly expectations | getting bent out of shape too quickly when they aren't met
 9K | anxiety looming
knee pain
too little time for blogging


Sunshine:
an extra heart (complete with two helping hands) in our home these last two weeks
sleeping kidlet | less stressed parents
family get togethers
russian olive trees blooming | inhale
thunder showers forecasted | oh, I love a raining night

    Oh those russian olives...they smell like sweet tarts. Something I would usually find disgusting but when it wafts by on the breeze, I inhale as strongly as I can.

    Oh man I have been gone too long. Hooray for sleeping babes, and for rain!! And russian olive trees? Oh please do share! What do they look like? And I hear you about no time for blogging, but that just means life is full I think. And the run, oh the run and your courage, it is so inspiring. Running is not for me but I can fast walk and hiking is my love!! Please please let me know if you ever want to go on regular hikes!! I loved your Red Rocks photos by the way, gorgeous. Much love and luck to you tomorrow!!

    Such a cute photo of Avi. He seems like such a sweet little guy. And ditto on the rain. We are having our second miraculous day of overcast with real, true rain falling. It just started again as I sat down at the computer. Love! Happy weekend!
