« love thursday: us »

Thanks to Jon for lending Leah his camera to take this shot.  Fotofest gallery, February 19, 2010.

 

I love this shot of us -- we look exactly like we look in my head when I think of my little family.

Happy Love Thursday, everyone.  Think good thoughts of your family today -- however you define the word "family."

So, so beautiful. :-) That picture to me is the very definition of "family" and "happy." Oh, and "beautiful." !! What a beautiful, living gift for Alex.

I wrote this week about my upcoming, first-ever race that the "new me" is taking part in. And when I say "wrote about" what I mean is "freaked out about." Happy Love Thursday!
