It's a Pleasant Thing...

Ah, Spring's coming! It really is. Right now it's snowing like crazy, but it's only a matter of time. Those flowers are coming out of the ground, and the bees are buzzing. Slowly but surely the grass is turning from brown to green. This morning we woke up and the bathroom floor was barely cold.
We are mentally preparing ourselves to do much of our living outside again. Planning gardens, and outdoor chores, as we load another log into the fire. And simultaneously amazed that it is nearly April already. Amazed that our little girl is growing so fast - she is already in 12month clothes, and stretching further by the day, in every way.

Kids change so fast, so how is it that they seem so timeless? So incredibly innocent and mercurial and busy, and then able to remind us that it is always, always worthwhile to just stop and enjoy the moment?

(I just love the word "mercurial")

Big thoughts...

Questing fingers...

Fascinating toes...

"It's a pleasant thing to be young, and have ten toes." -Robert Louis Stevenson

Our Holly is a girl who loves her toes. Quite often, if she's crying, stripping her of pants and socks, and allowing her to chew on her toes will quiet her down and bring back that beautiful smile. Ah, that's better...
Simply irresistible!
