thoughts

"In the autumn, my children sometimes stand under the maple trees in our front yard trying to catch the bright yellow leaves spiraling to the ground. From the many leaves that shower down from the trees, only a handful are snatched and saved.
The special moments of our lives are like those leaves: Swirling by us to rest in the dormant past. Only a few can be captured and turned into precious memories. And as scrapbookers, that's our role. To grasp and preserve as many sweet moments as possible."~Rebecca Sower

It's so true these days that I can barely find time to jot a few notes in Delaney's calendar about new words she says or funny things she does. Recently she is obsessed with bugs. She calls all bugs "bees". I always know if there's a fly or ladybug in the house because of her frantic shouts, "BEE! BEE!" :)

I hope with this blog to record some memories and photos for us and others to enjoy.
