“I see your smile
And it’s so much sweeter

And anytime someone asks me
How it all unfolded I’ll tell them
Such incredible chances
Make for marvelous love.
Just like the sun lights up the moon
This love is a reflection

I’ve got everything we ever did
It’s tattooed on my heart
But...

Her transformation has been amazing. She has grown into a lively, adventurous, sweet but strong willed little girl. I can not...

The Good Life.
They have the power of the sun and strength of the soil.
Finding peace in their hearts and faith in their toil.
Sowing love. Planting seeds.
Growing roots.
Blossoms to be.

My babies both had birthdays this week. It seems so fitting that they are celebrating together since they have such a special bond. Riley simply adores his little sister. He can never get enough hugs & kisses and tells me everyday that she is the most beautiful baby in the world.
As we...
