Spring has Sprung

I haven't been blogging to much lately, had the blahs. Lately as I have been watching the trees bud out, the flowers bloom, everything is coming to life, looking more vibrant(including me). I grabbed my camera today, dragged Jill with the promise(bribe) of a freezie if she would sit for me to snap a couple of shots in our neighbours garden. I love the awakening of colors, the warmth of the natural light, my little model didn't cooperate with me for long but the results were pretty good.

I posted this shot because it just makes me laugh out loud, she had just about enough. I love the pout, crossing of the arms, mostly I just love my girl.

Now to try and get Jennifer to sit for me, LOL...

I heart faces

This weeks theme at I heart faces is hats. I posted this picture of Jillian because I love this hat on her, it is spunky and fun , just like my girl.

Head on over to I heart faces and check out some of the other brilliant and creative shots.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter to all, hope your weekend has been full of many blessings.

Oh happy day!!

Over the last nine months we have been monitoring some swollen lymph nodes, it has been to say the least ,a scary time. Trying not to let my worried mind wander to dark places, it was a scary few months. We were finally sent to a specialist who has put all my fears to rest. After some testing they found the root of the problem, her adenoids are causing the gland to be swollen and plugged. They were huge.
We now wait for a couple of months, for the flu and cold season to slow down, then we go back to the hospital to reassess the gland and adenoids. They will then make a decision to pull them at that time.
I walked from the hospital with wings on my heart, it was lighter, happier and I felt so relieved.
Thank you for the support of my blogger buddies, your prayers and positive thinking made all the difference.

To may the day even happier I got hired today by our local grocer, a little part-time position in the Deli. It will be great to have some time for me and extra pocket change for whatever. ;)

Answers

Tomorrow is Jillian's specialist appointment, the day that we hopefully get the answers we need.

As you can see this by the pictures I took today, this little girl resonates our home with laughter, her sense of humour makes my heart happier, lighter and she fills me with such love.

It will be okay...

Ladybug sighting.

There was a ladybug sighting this rainy morning, bring on the referrals....

Our morning stroll...

This morning after we dropped Jen off at school Jill and I made are way across the park towards our place of ritual. It usually takes us about ten minutes to walk over to Tim's for our coffee, doughnut and conversation with all the regulars.
This morning everything was covered with a beautiful coating of hoare frost, it was like an artist took painstaking hours and perfected his craft on every blade of grass, leaf and stick in the park.
Jillian never ceases to amaze me, she picked up every leaf and stick all the while carefully investigating the pattern of the frost. She told me some looked like hair, spikes, prickles and fairy wings. I love her sense of wonder, discovery and her imagination.
Our walk took us about thirty minutes, the best minutes of my morning.
I adore this child..
