Survived Christmas, Surviving Shorties Birthday

There have been Christmas before this one, some festive, some not so festive but each one carries iwth it the memory that will not soon be forgotten. 
Christmas Past 

Ok by now we've survived Christmas festivities. Today we would be attempting to survive the baby's birthday.

First Birthday!

Christmas past was taken December 25, 2006. (I think) The child with reindeer antlers on her head had turned 7 almost two weeks prior, and this was to be her last Christmas as an only child. Two days later her little sister would arrive via scheduled C-section.

The First Birthday! that you see is just that, the youngest first birthday party. This year is bringing happier memories to the surface as it begins to draw to a close.

Hope you had a Merry Christmas!

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.

Flash in the Pan Playing Along Still

The pages were bent and ragged from years of use, covers worn out from hands rubbing over them. There were bowls everywhere, the oven was still hot. She tasted it again, something wasn’t right. It was sweet, tangy but not right. What was missing? She scanned the room again to see. Onions maybe? No, but what could it be? She hit her head on the cabinet. A pepper that was it!
