Beauty




"It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart.” Unknown

































Just a few shots from the kids photo shoot today. If you've never had the experience of taking a child to the photo studio it's something you must experience before you die. Not only the frustration of hoping the kids smile, but the overwhelming urge to scream at trying to pick 4 decent poses out of 80 while the nice lady tries to convince you that you must spend $400 because your kids are just "so cute." Mind you this is the same woman who moments ago was ready to throttle your three year old for chair hopping. Sure she thinks my kids are cute.

How we spend our days...




"How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives." Annie Dillard

A little look to the left makes you realize how I've spent my days and my life for the last four months.

Yes, it's true, not only have I not blogged in over 4 months, but apparently I failed to inform anyone of our blog address... So not only can you not know what's going on right now, but you don't even know this exists!

There is something almost existential about it...


I am going to enclose some pix of the kids- they are certainly not loving getting their pictures taken so I hope that as things progress they are happier. We are missing our family and friends far away and I know many of you have complained that you wish you could see how the kids are growing...


This one's for you!
