Sorry I haven't posted on this blog for some time, but time, it seems, moves much more quickly when you are caring for a little one and she is a mobile body, wanting to explore everywhere-- which means I get to explore as well!

In the past few months we have new words (a "hi" for everyone, and a "bye" for sometimes, plus a full "hi daddy" for my husband when he comes home at night-- too adorable!).

We went to Sacramento to visit all the in-laws for Easter (actually for them it was Passover, and I experienced my first Passover Dinner-- very interesting).

Then we came home and celebrated Easter-- Sierra loved trying to find eggs and had a good time.

Now we are amidst chaos of our house due to renovations (our bathrooms and painting the interior of our home).  At first I was a bit overwhelmed, but now I am working through the chaos and coming up with a plan for finishing. 

I am reminded that lfe is chaos (at least to some degree chaos is good), and order is good, but can be too comforting, therefore becoming dull.

Live life, embrace chaos, I know I am.

Cheers,
Swan

Hi all,

I was looking into this, since all the mothers in my life have about all the boobles they need (including myself).  Doing something for the needy children out there in my mothers' names:

I can't think of a better Mother's Day gift.

Much Love,
