My Springtime On A Snowy Day

When things aren't going Gray's way, he'll cross his arms and furrow his brow and grumble "I quit it!"

We all have our days.


I decided to take my crummy camera anyway, found some good light, and captured the beauty in a dull moment.

Softness in a hard heart.

Spring in my winter.
Much like me, so imperfect and unrefined.

But put me in some good Light and anything can be made good.

Good for you! I hope you feel better now. I have a crummy camera too (read - a once good camera that's been dropped a few gazillion times that works when it wants to) so I'm with you.

Margaret's played with that exact little grape toy. She loved to teeth on it.

And I'm glad you could find some happiness in this dreary weather.

Ivy is so pretty. And this is coming from a mom who has a pretty baby girl Ivy's age, so you know I mean it. Ivy is SO PRETTY.

We don't have any snow. Just freezing cold and mud. And rain. And gloom.
