Why I started a blog...

...So that when Abigail and I spend a glorious morning blowing bubbles I can share it with my family.

Hard to get shot of bubble blowing

So that when she spends two hours cuddling the Pooh Bear her Aunt gave her for her first Christmas, I can let her know.
Pooh Bear Love

So that when the beautiful mundane shines in everyday life, I can revel in it and share it.

Or even so that when life is a bit overwhelming, there is an outlet.  A place to reflect, to write, and to get some perspective.
uh oh, feeling thwarted

I know that my mom will probably be my most faithful (and possibly only reader). That's ok.  I don't have grand ambitions for this blog.  I just want a place to journal, share recipes, projects, and life, and to muse.  A place to include my family that lives 10 hours away in our everyday life and a way to record it for the family that lives only 10 minutes away.  Oh, and to show off my ridiculously cute daughter and handsome hubby!
