Beautiful Eyes

Love my niece's baby blues. How can you not fall into them?

Let's Hear it for the Boys

Daddy and Miles hiking recently. Miles wanted to stop and look at every little rock, so Daddy had to eventually carry him so we could move on.

Bright and Vivid

This little baby goat kept trying to eat Grace's bright pink outfit. She thought it was silly.

From a Distance

We recently visited a reindeer farm. We had a blast, but Miles eventually got tired of me taking pictures of him. This was his way of getting rid of me...walking away.

Best Face of May

Now that summer's here, Miles is discovering all kinds of new activities. One of the top ones is playing in the dirt. Shovels and buckets and smiles, oh my!

Motherhood - Take Two

Seeks painted trifles and fantastic toys, and eagerly pursues imaginary joys. ~Mark Akenside

I messed up on my previous post, as there was not a visible human face in the picture (which is half the point of I Heart Faces). So, here is my new entry. Motherhood, for me, is about sometimes allowing the mess. It's about sometimes cleaning up after they've gone to bed, and sometimes just leaving it for them to play in the next day. It's about enjoying these moments of exploration and fun instead of worrying about the mess that's being made.

Motherhood

A mother holds her children’s hands for a while, but their hearts forever.
