peeking at spring...


at first i didn't understand blogging. why would anyone be that interested in my life? what a waste of time. well i realize now that maybe it's not about others logging on... maybe it's all about me! getting all of these thoughts, ideas, inspirations out of my head and making room. all of my days i spend a good amount of time in my head - swimming with my ideas, finding sparks of creativity while simultaneously changing diapers, washing dishes, juggling my design work with an infant. but at 10 pm, after my seven year old has finished her bedtime routine that i must coach her through and after my 8 month old is finally sleeping after nursing her for the final time that day and after trying to catch up with and have an adult conversation with my husband which almost always just turns into what chores we need to tackle and who goes where the next day... after all of that the all too familiar reality is that i guess i will not get to spend time with my creative side after all - and really at that point all there is left is the vision of my sweet pillow. and i wouldn't want it any other way. i am so very blessed with a busy, healthy life. i'm in need of a quick creative outlet is all. SO, here it is my first blog. i will use this space to post photos, art, ideas, recipes, crafts, inspiration, whatever happens to come my way that i wish to share and just get out there. it feels good already. so maybe one day i'll find some readers who see themselves in me, who share a love of mamahood and creativity.... but until then this is for myself - to let it all out so i can go to sleep already!
