Welcome to our life as we transition to a new chapter with our little girl. Ella continues to amaze us and we count our blessings every day! The future is unknown but we are excited about all its possibilities.
Where will we go?
Who knows, we're just enjoying the ride for now...
I was cleaning out Ella's closet today and found the box of knit blankets and clothing from my childhood. Here is a dress I had at Ella's age, I'm pretty sure it was knit by my Grandmother Iva, but there is a chance my Great Aunt Wynne could have knit it. Ella is 21 months, as was I in this picture. I'm glad I found it now to capture Ella in it...

“The test of an adventure is that when you’re in the midst of it, you say to yourself, ‘Oh, now I’ve got myself into an awful mess; I wish I were sitting quietly at home.’
And the sign that something’s wrong is when you’re sitting quietly at home wishing you were out having lots of adventure.”
- Thorton Wilder -
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the things you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade wind in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover. "
- Mark Twain -
Hell is a world where you have no home. And even though I was in heaven something drew me back to my home.
I can’t put into words the things I've seen the places I’ve been or what it all means.
Because its not so much what you look at
But when you look, what you see
And I see that my eyes are the eyes of the world
and in my eyes
I AM.
