OOPSIE DAISY

OOPSIE DAISY

is almost like

serendipity

a happy accident

i have driven by this boutique

numerous times

intrigued by the unique and bright decor

but never ventured in

noah and i just happened to be in the neighborhood

i talked him into going inside...

mesmerized by the diversity and quality of furniture
books.
clothing.
bedding.
trinkets.
toys...

for a moment,

 i felt deprived 

for not having

 little girls to dote on

yet noah seemed perfectly content
and left with his own purchase

 i felt that i had found my happy place

a place of

exploration.

magic.

charm.

dreams.

sunshine.

imagination.

creativity.

fairy tales.

truly a place to bask in the talents of others

5 star service

and maybe a few more

(they were kind enough to let me do what i love most

take picture of beautiful things)

TRACKING SPRING

SPRING is such a beautiful season

though

it sneaks up on you

and leaves in the blink oh the eye.

in the past

i have observed barren branches

that like magic

are clothed
in exquisite blossoms
and i wonder

when did that happen?

this year

i would not let it take me un aware

i was going to track SPRING

march 23, 2013

more snow

the next seven days

i photographed

the same five plants

at the same time each day

march 27 - april 2
2013

for the most part

very little change

just when i was about to give up

april 9, 2013

april 13, 2013

when does SPRING cease

i do not know

and i am in no hurry...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US

my BIRTHDAYS will never be the same

each passing year

i am reminded of

the miracles

and tender mercies 

of my heavenly father

on my 39th BIRTHDAY

heaven sent

me a gift

of such

magnificence

and grandeur

that words escape me

i have quiet celebrations in my heart

i gather

the pregnancy journal and baby books

and reflect on the beauty of that day

ten short years ago

my mother and father

provided a 90 minute massage

where i could continue

to ponder

reflect

and bask in the art of touch
just around the corner
is fire engine number 5

the bright red door brings a smile to my face

my creator
graces me with nature's beauty

and then...
it is all about noah

noah's tenth BIRTHDAY
