domestic reflections: Week 23.

Week 23.

June 12, 2009

This week was hard. I've been in a real funk. Physically feeling good though. Loading up on Omega 3's. Apparently, the baby's brain goes through a huge growth spurt the last half of the pregnancy. Hope all the other pregnant ladies out there are feeling good!

Yes, you look great. Hope you feel better soon. And, hey--Aren't there omega-3's in that pasture butter?? There's a happy coincidence :)

Love the bump! It's funny to see a "normal" bump... I'm 24 weeks with twins and so huge compared to you!! ;)

I love:
Rainy days, moody music, warm drinks, picking fruit from a tree, turquoise water, baking, sharing meals with friends, most everything “old world,” simple, rustic, smart, funny, really hot baths, feeling connected, being pregnant, finding the perfect gift, smelling the tops of my kids’ heads, cacti + succulents, citrus, California light, guest houses, stinky cheeses, everything my grandmother baked, hearing my kids laugh, small world connections, smiles between strangers, snuggling, reading cookbooks, modern, Mediterranean, walks in the forest, being near the ocean, everything about the desert, gold, jeans, Lillet Blanc, natural childbirth, the beginning of a new season, snail mail, hearing someone’s story, people who reveal themselves…

"your children are not your children,
they are the sons and daughters of life's longing for itself.
they come through you but are not from you,
and though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
you may give them your love but not your thoughts,
for they have their own thoughts.
you may house their bodies but not their souls,
for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
you may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
for life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday."
