Breathe

Amy informed me today that I needed to add "write a new post" on my to-do list today because she's sick of London's Reverence Song. Well, not the song, just the lack of a new post.

So . . . I don't really have much to post about until I take some pics of some things, but I will make it a goal to post at least 3-4 times this week -- how's that, Amy?

Here's a picture Amy took a few weeks ago when she was practicing with her camera on the kids. I just sat and re-read a classic favorite of the Hendrix-romantic-teenage-girls, wondering if it would be as good to me as an adult. On the Night of the Seventh Moon. It was good, but maybe not as intriguing as it was to my teenage-self and definitely not the the best writing, but it was a fun, easy read.

I like this picture because it reminds me of the beginning of last year when everyone chose a word to focus on for the year. Mine was BREATHE. I wanted to relax and just enjoy life a little more and not just jump into things, to think before I spoke, etc. I think I did pretty well the first six months, but then I forgot my word. This picture brought me back to my word and reminded me how nice it is to just sit and relax and drink some hot chocolate or curl up and read a good book by the light of the Christmas tree. It's nice to take a break during this crazy season and just enjoy quiet - and breathe. So, just take a break and relax a moment and you'll feel better.
