To the outside world, we all grow old.

But not to brothers and sisters.

We know each other as we always were.

We know each other’s hearts.

We share private family jokes.

We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys.

We live outside the touch of time. – Clara Ortega

ps. that quote made me cry. I wish nothing more then for these 4 goofballs to never grow old in there love for each other!

4 days left. JUST 4 days until  three out of four of my kids will be back in school and our schedules become a crazy mess again. I wish, I would have felt this way at the beginning of summer. You know…  ”things can wait, laid back way of feeling” about things. But I didn’t and I was oh so irritating and constantly trying to keep things clean and tidy and trying to get several house projects finished. My poor kids. But now that Summer is over I have figured it out (good thing huh). Things can wait. Yes, we can hula hoop all day long if you want… 

(and she does, outside, inside, in my room, in the tv room, in the kitchen, everywhere! I’m thinking 5th grade talent show?)

So, see you in a week or so. I do have a lot of updating and some plans for  this little blogdigity of mine but it’s going to have to wait just a wee bit longer. I have some serious summer fun and relaxing plans(sleep till 9 maybe 10) to squeeze in these next four days.

I just spent all day watching the little one cheer on the big one. ((ya, baseball…ALL day )

Seriously, makes my heart burst!! So I chose this picture tonight for “Sunday Special” because it too makes my heart burst.

XOXO,

Jodie

I am starting a new “dealy dad” where I post one of my most favorite pictures Ever…on Sundays. aka “Sunday Specials”! These can be super old pictures or super new pictures.They can be I phone pictures or professional pictures.  Simply, just the pictures that speak to me the most. The ones that make my heart skip and I find myself self staring at for hours on end!  I figured this is good for you and me. It will give you a clear idea of my style and for me, well  just another excuse to share my photographs . I hope you enjoy as much as me!

This first “Sunday Special” is of my two youngest boys. Nothing quite  makes me smile more then pop bellies and  boxer undies!

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend. ~Plautus

When I took Mollie to do her ten year old photo’s this year she asked if she could bring a friend. Smart little girl because when you bring friends along to photo shoots your bound to get real smiles and you know…I Love Real Smiles! It’s so fun to watch Mollie grow and begin these new friendships that I know will be special to her forever!

My Sweet Little MO’s is Ten! Unbelievable! Not a day goes by that I am not blown away by her Beauty inside and out!

XOXO,

One Proud,  Momma!
