glimpses

"Childhood is measured out by the sounds, smells and sights before the dark hour of reason grows - John Betjeman"

For me the the light, love and laughter of my two little ones shines through in these images. Even the last one where Leah is sad because I am cold and we are leaving. These are moments I  want to remember for a lifetime. It was pretty much our first real snow of the year (crazy for Chicago area right). We had big plans to sled but when the kids got home it was raining, yuck!! We watched and waited until the rained stopped and when it did we loaded on our gear and headed out to go sledding. It may not be easy but they teach me every day to let go and just enjoy the ride.
