Life Lately, According to My Phone

Wishing weeds + green grass -- Rainy days remind us that it's Spring -- Buby's rock jar -- Ollie's bracelet {after a group tumble on the stairs / he's fine} -- A butterfly story -- Sowing seeds



Life lately has been good + sweet, but I'm so exhausted some nights I can't think straight. Of course I meant to post about Ollie's first words; Bleu turning 4; an update on school life; the mighty cherry blossoms before they fell; my 5 years on Blogger; Ollie's quick trip to the ER {which I promise sounds worse than it is}; Mother's Day upcoming; our 12-year wedding anniversary on the 20th; the first night we will spend away from Ollie, ever!


I mean to do all these projects outside of mothering, but there just aren't enough hours. We. Are. So. Busy. Speaking of which, if I owe you an email/call/text... Some day I will be better at this. Right now I fall asleep super late with the computer on my lap, mid upload. I wake up, turn it off and rest for maybe an hour before the baby wakes.


Here's a peek at some mini moments of the past few weeks which alone wouldn't make a post, but collectively serve as a great reminder of what I'm doing here.
