Artsy-Fartsy

I can't help it. I'm in love with this picture. I don't usually love pictures of me, but this one is artsy and silly and perfect.
I had my laptop open on the kitchen counter as I was making dinner in the evening. I was reading comments and listening to music and blog-hopping and stirring soup. Then the sun came out, and there was my reflection overlapping my page.


In so many ways, this photo is the perfect glimpse of how I see myself these days. I don't get out much... I'm a total homebody. Its mostly just me and the kids and errands and housework and evenings with Daddy and... you.

I don't really know what it is about me that makes me enjoy writing this blog so much, but this online journal has become an inseperable part of how I think each and every day. You give me fuel and inspiration to keep taking pictures, to keep noticing the details that make up my life. I find myself getting excited about telling the story of my life in snapshots, for my benefit, as a record for my kids to read when they are grown and I am gone, and as a link to the outside world.

It makes me really happy that you keep coming back to see what I'm up to, what we are up to. I have a widget that tells me how many of you are stopping in on a daily basis, and I am humbled to know that you are out there living life and taking the time to visit... hopefully finding encouragement and inspiration in the photos I take and the words I write.
