Monochrome Monday – 1st Edition

This is one of my all time favorite shots. I love it!

Walking at Sunset

Oh sing of summer and a sunset
And sing for us, so that we may remember
The day writes the words right across the sky
They all go all the way up to the top of the night

A few night a week I have been taking the kids for a walk around the block right before it gets dark. They love it and I love spending the time with the as we explore our neighborhood.

Handsome rides his scooter and The Goddess pushes her baby dolls in a carriage or shopping cart. Me, I just look for cars and stop the boy from wiping out.

Photo Friday – Relationships

Head on over to Photo Friday to see more pictures or to participate.

The relationship between a mother and her child is profound.

The Best Time Of The Day

You’re gonna miss this
You’re gonna want this back
You’re gonna wish these days hadn’t gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you’re gonna miss this – Trace Atkins

We have been taking the kids around the block at sunset. It is beautiful out and the air is crisp. My son is allowed to take his scooter (a big step for me and for him) and my daughter takes her babies. It takes us about 25 minutes to go around the block which would be about 4 if I was alone but it is so much fun.  They point out everything and my son is getting better on the scooter. He has never ridden in the street and the first night he wiped out two times. Thank God for helmets.

Ruby Tuesday – Football

Head over to Mary, at Work of the Poet to participate in Ruby Tuesday.

This is a picture of my son from 5 + years ago. I adored it then and I adore it now. It is one of my favorites.

Weekend Snapshot

I’m on the top of the world looking down on creation, And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I’ve found ever since you’ve been around, Your loves put me at the top of the world

Photo Friday – Ordinary

Sky Watch Friday

Nobody’s gonna’ steal your thunder, nobody’s gonna’ tell you lies
Leave a trail of intentions with you under your pillow -
Nobody’s gonna’ drag you under, nobody’s gonna’ shoot you down
Not as long as there’s an angel watching over your china sky- Xenon

When I look up from my deck this is the beauty I see.
