A girl and her horse.

Except, this girl doesn't have a horse.

"Yet," she says.

 

This could mean trouble...

Seriously, does it get any cooler than this?!!??

I have a dear friend and each time one of her littles got hurt, she would scoop them up and say,

"I love you.  I love you, I love you.  I'm sorry you got hurt.  I love you."

  

At first this sounded a bit strange to me, especially when I compared it to my usual gut reaction,

"What happened!?  

"How did you manage that?  

"Are you okay?!" 

"Be careful next time, okay?" 

And even though I would hug and kiss all over them, I couldn't help but re-examine my words.  Not exactly comforting.  And then I thought of Our Lord....

What does he say when we are hurt?  

Does he say, "How did you manage that?!"  or

"I love you.  I love you, I love you.  I'm sorry you got hurt, I love you."

I am so thankful for these friends that cross our paths and show the love that Christ has for us.  It has helped make me a better person and momma to be sure.

I'm better about it now, and if you should see one of my babies get hurt, you will hear me say, "I love you, I love you.  I'm sorry you got hurt.  I love you."  

Unless it's one of my teenage boys doing something teenagerey.  Then all bets are off...

Methinks someone has been looking over my shoulder a bit much lately when I've been on the computer..

You are a new 'two'.   You love letters, numbers, dancing and singing the alphabet song.  But most of all you love coloring, scribbling, doodling and drawing on walls.  

Every. chance. you. get.

Sometimes I just wish you would stick with using the chalk board one...

So, can I count this as my token 'First Day/Back to School' photo?

This 365 project has put the camera back in my hands.   

Sometimes the shots don't turn out the way I expect or invasion them to, but I still love them.  This is one of those. 

I call them perfectly imperfect.

Peaceful ending to a great weekend...
