i heart

3.22.08


this week...

i love the sight of: Buby running toward eggs on the grass, swings at the park and his pillow at night, children's art on the walls, horse farms, muddy rain boots by the door, the Clintons squirming, Buby surprising me by going potty standing up and explaining "DADDY DOES THAT"

i love the sound of: me saying "Buby, you know i love you" and Buby replying "Mama, i know everything," Buby singing softly before closing his eyes, birds chirping {1 or 2 birds, not 1,000}, baby jazz + blues playing in the car

i love the scent of: springtime, tulips left on my doorstep by a dear friend, a just-opened jar of Emerald dry roasted almonds, firewood burning, whatever Denise put in Buby's hair, valencia orange candles

i love the taste of: salt bagels toasted + buttered, sparkling pear juice, jello with fruit, lemon pie, Lucky Charms {i swear i'm eating good stuff, too}

i love the feel of: my son hugging my leg out of the blue and saying "I LOVE YOU, MOMMY," moving our bedroom upstairs so we are on the same floor as the kid{s}, laying on the playroom floor doing puzzles {yes, this from the anti-puzzle girl}, completing a freelance project {1 more to go before Bebe is born}
