The most sacred thing is a child's innocence;
his trust the most inviolate.

I'm a hobbyist photographer, a school counselor, a health junkie, and a mom. But above all, I'm just a woman living my truth. My biggest happiness in life is to savour each moment while it happens. That's all. That's everything.

His Heart



Someone finished up speech therapy today.

Someone wrote a "note" to his speech therapist and brought cut out hearts his daddy made. (Yes, let's all just say "Awww!" and get it over with.)


Hearts


The sounds /k/, /g/, and /s/ are now being heard every single day, all day long. It's a great thing for him to be talking and knowing that everyone can understand him, not just me.... but now it doesn't stop. Not at all during the day. Actually, now, it's all day long, and yes, he even talks in his sleep. So it doesn't stop at night.

Yes, I've learned my lesson: be careful what you wish for.

Oh, yes, I've learned.

  3. I did say awwwww, even before I read that you typed that!

    The only time my kids are quiet is when they are sleeping. And sometimes not even then. :)

    Love your SOOC shot!

  4. Such a sweet photo and I am chuckling at the "be careful what you wish for." My son has unfortunately inherited my chattiness and also occasionally talks in his sleep. :)

  10. Our oldest has been in speech therapy for half his life. It is VERY exciting to hear how they progress, and being able to communicate without mommy having to translate... such a beautiful thing!

  12. I know your pain. My Little Dude is obsessed with Phonics (learned from his JK class). He enunciates the last sound of his words and sometimes even tries to correct my pronunciation. It's driving me insane! I want to echo the awwwww's ... I'm a sucker for crafty boys/men : )

I'm tickled you dropped by! Leave a link to your email or webpage so I can respond. Thanks for chatting!


The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before.
The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.
