It's been a little crazy, I won't lie. I am not a fan of moving and it makes me sick to think that within a year we are going to move AGAIN. (Only this time not very far, and we will be buying a home large enough for our family so that part will be exciting). I still have four boxes to unpack and for some reason just can't seem to get to it. This morning, when I was trying to make my bed, the kids ran in and decided it would be more fun to rip off the comforter and roll across the sheets (I guess I hesitated too long in deciding weather to strip the sheets or not today). My first inclination was to shoo them away - off to play elsewhere while I made the bed and got the baby dressed. But instead, I whipped out the camera. Somehow, I find great comfort with the camera in my hands, it helps me slow down to enjoy the moment I'm in - to really be present for a moment and see the life I have from one step back. The boxes will get unpacked...eventually. Everything will find a place...sooner or later. But sometimes these little ones just need me to halt what I'm doing and just be with them. Today. I don't think I've got one shot of the three of them yet - and I know it's never going to be perfect, so I might as well just catch them in the glorious moment of NOW. Little crazies and sillies! Sometimes they truthfully drive me crazy - but I still love them, all the time. They love each other, it's evident. Sawyer and Aspen are best friends, and they have welcomed Hazel into their circle with open arms. I love them all to pieces!
I sure do love them!
