....blog, you are two......

.....just stopping by for a quick sentiment to you, beloved blog.....

.....Happy birthday.....today you are two......and for 24 months, I have come to you to sit down and reflect on the minutes of my life that add up to one big day, week, month or year.....and I occasionally return to reflect on days passed and many times sit in awe remembering the littleness of my quickly growing family......

....you have been a treasure, blog.....a true archive to preserve for my family.....

....above all things, blog, you are my one and only.....you are the only thing, besides Stefan, who truly belongs to me.....as mommas, we all share everything with our children and our husbands.......and although I share what I write with our friends and family who choose to read you, when I sit down to document my thoughts, it is just you and me.....I can write what I want, reflect how I want and create memories through the pictures I choose to use.....you are my creative place and my sense of accomplishment in archiving the effort, work and love I strive to give my family.....

.....as much as I love giving, it feels good to arrive here and do as I please.....so thank you for that, blog.....you keep me grounded, help me to be more grateful, more thankful and more reflective......you truly keep me sane and give me quiet time in the evening to arrive and just be.....

.....so to honor your past year, here is a quick glimpse of all the looks you donned over the last twelve months.....





.....here's to another year of you and me, blog.....thank you.
