when blue sky beckons...


 

a quick visit to portland to stay with friends for one night. because quick visits to portland will be on hold for a bit soon. because sometimes you need to just be with people who deeply get you. the house is quiet this morning. the little one did not allow her mama to sleep comfortably this morning, kicking with insistence no matter the position i turned. so i am up, while everyone sleeps. and the blue sky smiled down on me through the windows and pushed me to find my way outside with my camera. in the crisp air i captured just a few pieces of this corner of the world. and i remembered to breathe in and out and hold the space for myself. and i wondered at the way spring returns with such specific hope.

The little miss is just getting you prepared for disrupted sleep. Soon she'll make your bladder a trampoline, if she hasn't already. Did you ever think your body could be changed so much, so quickly?

Beautiful! So glad you remembered your own wise advice to breathe..... and hold the space. I hope to share this concept with my own little group of retreaters soon! Love to you and the little one.

love the photos, especially the clogs and the pajamas because I could have taken the exact same shot of myself...glad to see I am not the only one!

such lovely photos.
so happy you were able to visit with those who "deeply" get you...i feel there is nothing quite like that.
so sorry the wee one didn't let you rest...she is preparing you for what is to come.
so happy for the hope spring is bringing with her.

sending love
xoxo
