Week 2-Birmingham Children’s Photography:
Last night, when I closed my eyes, you were tiny.
Small enough to lay on my chest, feeling our breaths synchronize.
You were mine to cuddle all day.
Rubbing my face on your head, your white, silky hair tickling my nose.
Stealing sweet smiles with the slight stroke of my finger across your cheek.
This morning, I awoke, realizing that the quiet, simple moments are the ones to treasure.
When the rest of the world slips into the distant background.
It’s just you and me.
Our moments.
This is what it’s all about . . .
This is life!

This is the second week of the My Four Hens 52 Week photography challenge. You may remember that last weeks theme was resolution, and I chose to start journaling again. So far, I’ve been able to keep it up, we’ll see if I can continue. :) I decided to use a piece from my journal to accompany this weeks image. The theme is Life, and I think all mommies can relate to this. Our babies grow up so quickly, and sometimes with the whirlwind around us, it’s hard to remember that there are some very few (hahaha) quiet moments.


So beautiful! You are soo right! What a great reminder. :)
