{ This moment } – A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words (a few words) – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
If you’re inspired to do the same, leave a link to your ‘moment’ in the comments for all to find and see. Inspired by SouleMama.
** Felt this one might need a few words… my little man has mastered clapping his hands. And not randomly waving them about, but palm in palm, making a real clapping noise. So now, every time I try to take a picture, he’ll sit still, but his hands won’t stop clapping. LOL! My week is full of pictures with perfect smiles and blurry hands! **
Family, Faith, Food and Fabric 
Gosh – was it so long ago that my kiddies had that same beautiful face your sweet child has. It goes so very quickly – I’m glad you’re enjoying every single clap – just wait until the cartwheels and skipping commence!

Oh, I’m there with my preschooler! LOL! While one is eating my furniture to help with teething, the other one is rushing home from preschool to put on tuts and dance around the kitchen while I attempt making dinner. It’s a wonderful world I live in!
Thank you for stopping by and have a lovely week-end.

You as well – enjoy the weekend. I’m doing a bit of blogging before I head out to sub teach a sixth grade class – it’s a lovely thought to think they might just silently clap and smile through class 😉

It is… I’ve had people tell me that you stop and notice things less with the second child… I can’t say I’ve felt that way, Time goes by faster, that is for sure… But I don’T feel like his firsts have less of an imprint on me. 🙂 I enjoy every second of them!

Our moment this week comes from after church on Easter Sunday. We have always waited to check out the Easter baskets (the girls know they come from us) until we get back from church but their patience at being able to do so has always impressed me. This picture just captures that perfectly!
