i hear birds chirping & there are sunny skies…finally! so thankful that spring is coming soon…

about all of those who have been affected by the earthquake and tsunami in japan. so heartbreaking & my thought and prayers are with them.

a healthy baby boy & a loving (and patient) husband.

that a {photography} business does not just happen over night. it takes time, energy, and the strength to keep going (even when i get discouraged.)

a garden. haha, not really. but i really want to. actually, jay and i want to have a small farm one day. who knows! :)

to destin, fl & lousiana this summer with jay! we’re going for a friend’s wedding and extending the trip some (sort of like a mini vacation i guess) woohoo!

dancing in the mine fields by andrew peterson. love the video & the lyrics:

“i do” are the two most famous last words
the beginning of the end
but to lose your life for another i’ve heard
is a good place to begin

 

’cause the only way to find your life
is to lay your own life down
and i believe it’s an easy price
for the life that we have found

the good word. and parts of sally clarkson’s book “mission of motherhood” i read it before leland was born but has so many good truths, so i always love to re-read it.

to get some work done tonight. or laundry. or hopefully both.

i’ve got to start organizing some things! eek, some things are just scattered everywhere.

is watching leland.. can’t believe how much he’s grown and changed each month since he was born. his little personality is starting to come out and before i know it he’ll be crawling.

well, now that the week is almost over…our weekend plans are: spending time with some friends & family, seeing chris tomlin on saturday, taking pictures, and more…

…of my brother and leland from earlier today, haha. leland loves him!

love,
arielle
