Scavenger Hunt Sunday

1.  This is ME!


(Luke is such a Mama's Boy that right now it's a BIG 
part of who I am at 37+...and I wouldn't change a thing.)



2.  Resolution(s)


(I'm more of a "personal-growth" gal...but still I 
will learn to use my very amazing sewing machine 
in 2011!  Seriously.  No...really.  I mean it.)

The Paper Mama
Photography love...




3.  Innocence


(My boys are so sweet and loving, at ages 2 and 7.)



4.  Treasured


(I am constantly amazed by my life.  I get to sit in 
the floor with my 2-year old and wait until it's time 
to go to the bus-stop for my 7-year old and cook for
my sweet hubby...plus take a ton of fotos...and still 
be girlie.  It's certainly not always 100% smooth, 
but it's always treasured, for sure!  XO!)


Mikayla: my life in words


5.  Primitive




(This was a most-amazing-bargain and it hangs in 
my dining room.  Its hand-carved and the back is 
inscribed with "1st - 1931".  How cool is that?)

I saw your "this is me shot" and thought that is my favorite. Then, I thought the same thing after looking at each photo. Love them all and your perspective is wonderful.

Dina - I can't pic a favourite today. I hope you succeed with the sewing machine - before I went back to work I had it out on the table permanently.

Treasured is my favorite! I completely know what you mean. With my youngest being 5 already, I'm holding on tighter every day!! The sewing machine is a love from my past I hope to rekindle with a new machine. You're adorable!

Your eyes are just beautiful! Love that first picture. Also love the one of you on the floor with Luke, and what you wrote. True it's not always perfect, but we do treasure all that we have!
