day 348.


Sea World, San Diego.
Shamu Show.

the rain was outrageous. horrid. a joke. a nightmare.
this was an hour before they closed the park because of the "hurricane weather"
jax still got to see some pretty cool stuff, and for that we are thankful.



day 329.





i was having one of those days.
you know those days.

my hair and my skin and my hairy legs and my unpainted toenails and my whiny son and my stinky washer and my unworking dishwasher and my messy house..well it equals a big fat meltdown.

except i have these about once a week, so they're not uncommon.

but


my sweet sweet neighbor was kind enough to not roll her eyes at my annoying complaint on facebook.
instead she brought over this.


i wanted to cry. how nice!
gosh, i love nice people.


she really really helped me that day :)



day 322.




happy thanksgiving.

i am thankful for LIFE.

let me explain why i chose this photo. its been a crazy year for me, and for my husbands side of the family, and for a dear friend of mine. LIFE has been crazy. many babies were born, but none of them being mine. 4 of my sister in laws had babies this year. this is one of them. my friend has two babies that were completely unplanned, and she is unmarried. this isn't a self pity post by any means. what makes this whole thing significant and ironic, is that this baby's daddy has cancer, and has been told he has a 10% chance to live. This baby right here was conceived ONE month before they even knew he had cancer, and before he started chemo right after, making him sterile. this baby was a miracle.

this baby was given LIFE.
LIFE is a miracle.

i am so very blessed to have LIFE, while some our struggling so hard for theirs.
