Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are…
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect Tomorrow.
One day I shall dig my nails into the earth,
or bury my face in my pillow,
or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky
and want, more than all the world, your return.

Julianna


She's growing so fast. I wish I could catch it, slow it down, hang on to her.

It's like a shooting star slipping through the sky, beautiful, fleeting. I'm so aware of how temporary this stage of parenting is.

She's on the cusp of so much.

Already this morning, as I curled the ends of her hair a bit for picture day, she told me how much she loves blow dryers, curling irons, flat irons. No, these are not products I use on her hair regularly. Very once in a while, which is probably why she loves them so.

I'm so lucky to have this girl. So lucky to have been blessed with four children.

It literally takes my breath away.
