Here we are, deep into the changing moments of fall, and into the heart of the school year. I have been so invovled with work and family, my photography and journaling updates on the blog have fallen wayside. However, I finally made the time to update, so a few new posts will showcase our busy lives out here in beautiful Washington.
I'm going to start with Maddy because we all know she is often the highlight of my posts. But what proud mama doesn't want to boast about their little one? She has really grown up the past few months and I can see the changes really taking place in her eagerness to learn and questions around what she wants to know on the world around her. She is funny and our conversations are imaginative. She is growing into her own little person and she loves...boy does she love. We left the Froyo place Saturday and she said, "that girl in there...I just love her." Who says that? :) She also has a bit of an advanced edge in reading, as her wonderful preschool teacher, Becca, said she's showing signs at 3 that she's ready. That's pretty awesome.
She took up ballet this fall, because I was late at getting her signed up for soccer. But she likes it. At first, she wasn't into it, but she is gradually learning to follow directions and do what the teacher says, rather than be distracted by the other girls in her class. And she comes home and dances around and sings. She makes up songs, she sings to her babies...she is such a joy. Capturing these moments are like hidden treasures in my sweet world of treasured memories. Small moments of sweetness amidst the impatience that I just reflect on when I am in a mood.
So here are some pics of her the past few months. Hopefully I will get some new pics up after Halloween, but it may be awhile.
Until next time...
