Photo Booth Shots

This series of pictures reminded me of the good "old-fashioned" photo booth shots--close-up and sporadic. (I think there's an unspoken rule for photo booth pictures that someone is supposed to be looking away or making a silly face.)

When I look at these pictures, I can almost hear the giggles (not to mention the coaxing, "Ok, Carly look at the camera just for a few seconds. . .Hannah, over here, look over here!")

The girls are both so grown up! When did THAT happen!

Carly looks a lot like her dad.

Little Hannah's eyes with those amazing eyelashes...they remind me a little Sally Who.

They are both beautiful!

Wasn't it just February?

For what it's worth, I've written many blog posts in my head since February. I've blogged about Carly's dance recital from May, our trips to Florida and Omaha this summer, swim lessons, the first day of preschool for Carly and Hannah, and multiple in-between moments that represent this stage of life for our family. But, I just haven't gotten them typed from my head to the computer. Two years ago in December, I blogged once a day for 25 days about Things that Bring Joy . It was a fun thing to do but was definitely difficult, at times. So, I'm starting with baby steps. I'm hoping to blog once a week (yikes! I'm going from once every 9 months to once every week. Ha! Ha!) But, I very much want to capture my family's memories in these posts. Last year, I printed a book of my blog for my mom. I used http://www.blurb.com/ for the software, and let me tell you, it was awesome! (fyi, I'm not getting paid by them to wax eloquently about this) Sure, there...

Messy and Loud, Please

This morning, we found ourselves back at a place that evokes so many emotions in me.  Cook Children’s Medical Center.  Hannah had to be there at 6:30 AM for a surgery to remove a cyst above her eye.  The cyst had been there for over 6 months and though it wasn’t a concern, it needed to be removed so it didn’t pose a problem in the future.  So, we found ourselves in one of the happily-decorated waiting rooms, listening to Doc McStuffins, as multiple medical personnel walked by the windows.  Most of them smiled, some kindly waved at Hannah. I wondered what each of their specialities was—how many children they had seen through the night, how grave or hopeful each prognosis was. . . It made me thankful all over again for people who pour their lives into practicing medicine.   Soon, we found ourselves back in the pre-op area, answering questions about medical history, possible allergies, etc.  Hannah sat cross-legged on the bed, looking pretty comforta...

A Must-Read

I don't remember how I first came upon Ruth Chou Simon's blog, GraceLaced.  It was several years ago, and I was captivated by her incredible paintings immediately.  Along with her gift of creating, she has tremendous wisdom and faith, so her words are rich with encouragement and truth.  This is what has brought me back to her blog time and again.  So, when her 2nd book, Beholding and Becoming:  The Art of Everyday Worship  came out just last week, I jumped at the chance to be a part of the book launch team.  What an honor! This book captures so well how to lean into the Lord and set our gaze upon Him in our "dailies".  Especially in our world of technology-ridden lives, it becomes easy to worship other things.  Ruth encourages us to abide in the Lord in all ways.  Her genuineness and vulnerability are evident throughout the pages.  What a gift to read these pages and soak in the beauty of Ruth's paintings--truly a gift to my heart...
