A few sunflowers, one little bug, and a moonflower.

Just a few pictures for this monday morning- and little to do/ to wish list for me:
  • Finish September Toddler Curriculum for month one of "Fall Into Art"
  • Plan menu for my birthday party next week.
  • Resume Exercise routine for the week.
  • Make the myriad of doctors appointments necessary for this family's health and well being.
  • Make peace with what is realistic and necessary in the treatment of my mother in law's Alzheimer's disease. Phew. Thats a big one.
  • Focus on how to be as loving and compassionate with myself and others as possible through this difficult time.
  • And TRY to stay focused and organized on all the tasks ahead of me.
Blessed Be and Happy Monday!

Shannon, you're so strongly in my thoughts right now. Sometimes all you *can* do is put one foot in front of the other. If I can help you in some way, please holler at me.

And oh! I LOVE that shy peak-a-boo sunflower.

Thank you Beth. I really appreciate all of the love.

Love the way the moonflower petals look like a satin pillow...
