blooming

I appreciate this time

a bit differently.

I missed my art time

my time

so now I play

create

and smile

especially when I get to watch the baby blue birds growing up (and getting ready to spread their wings), the hydrangeas bloom and the pea pods surging higher.

and
of course
i love being home
with the kids
hearing their laughs
their squabbles...okay not so much
but i do treasure these days
especially with one about to be a junior in high school!
