"You are aware of the beating of your heart…The extraordinary thing that is about to happen is matched only by the extraordinary moment just before it happens. Advent is the name of that moment.” — Frederick Buechner, Whistling in the Dark

hi. just a couple things. it's been a busy few weeks.. does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon. but amidst it all i am just full of new clarity and remembering to take it all in... to slow down. do a few things and do them well. i'm reminded daily how my kids just love to be at home and with me.. i don't need to fill up their schedules. it only makes us crazy.

i am a week away from bootcamp being over.. i am really sad. i have loved doing it these last few weeks.. and seeing my clothes fit better is nice.

sweet, sweet Greta is here. i am so happy. she is beautiful.

we are doing a simple christmas around here... not many gifts. our kids have so much already. i do have some things we want to do with them that centre around helping others instead.

you must check THIS out. oh my.

just cause he is so cute. we brought back the swaddle.. it seems to be working.

oh and tlp photography is doing a 12 days giveaway.. go check it out. you may see yours truly in the near future ;)

I hope you see the beauty of waiting and anticipation this advent season. It's a beautiful thing.
