Lemon = Lemonade

You know the saying... and it's quite easy as a new mom to receive a new basket of lemons on any given day (without warning might I add), but I've never liked lemons personally, not even in my water. Really it just tastes like watered down lemonade, so why not give me the real thing. And so it goes...

Tired sick baby = extra snuggle time
Less time for self = more time watching someone's firsts
Early baby alarm clock = extra sunrises to view



My iPhone doesn't do this sunrise justice. It was really beautiful!
This snow-rise was just starting. Loved this so much!
We had a house guest recently who wasn't too fond of Silas. I think there was some jealousy involved.
So I gave Silas another "doggie" to look at. This boy LOVES to read.
He will take out all of them and just sit in a pile of books for hours. Of course I'm a good mommy and would never leave him there for hours... per say.
My teacher heart loves that he loves books so much. Doesn't require much to entertain him.
Hmmmm... should I be worried that he never goes outside to play?  :)
Had to throw in a pic of my other "kids". These girls are no longer kids, and getting ready to leave me for college in just a few months! I will miss leading their small group after these amazing four years. Time needs to slow down a bit please!

A little color

School has officially started for me, and my teachable teenagers will be booming into my room in two days! I can't wait to shape those minds of our future! :)   However, my summer projects are a great reminder of the joyful color and peace I had for two months. :) I found this great idea on Pinterest and thought it would add a great accent color to any room in my home! I still have to put it all together, but here's what the finished product will look like with a little more subtle turquoise: I have it all painted and ready to be assembled!  More pics upon completion! (may be quite a while though now that school is in session... hope you weren't holding your breath.) ~CC

Break from the blog

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines. I re...
