Can't help, but fall in love with this city -- especially at night in the rain.

happiness is...
“These big things...are not the important ones. If they were, how could one go on living? No, it is the small, little things that make up a day, that bring fullness and happiness to a life.”
― Benedict and Nancy Freedman (Mrs. Mike)
starting the new year off with a bang (52photoproject | week 37 | day one)
reorganizing and decluttering.
my laundry being done for the week.
discovering that the opened sharpie marker in the washer didn't ruin any clothes.
creative night = two friends building a piece of furniture.
finding time to visit with my neighbor.
sunshine (hear it's suppose to be gray the rest of the week).
everyone in the family working together.
realizing Adam's only going to be gone for two nights instead of three.
a reminder system that works for me (2do app).
clean sheets.
one on one time with my girls.
bookclub this week.
finally feeling better.
being able to run 5 miles after taking two months off.
cookie dough covered beaters.
my camelbak -- I'm hitting my goal and drinking more water.
homemade pot stickers for dinner.
yoga tonight with Meili.
finding them all together like this.
daily journal writing.
starting a new book.

52 photo project | week 07 | heart
not a moment will be lost as long as we have heart & voice to speak & we will walk again together with a thousand others & a thousand more & on & on until there is no one among us who does not know the truth: there is no future without love.

52 photos | week 02 | color
52 photo project
Have i told you lately about my husbands obsession with urban living?
I don't know why it was such a surprise to me when he first expressed his desire to move downtown, we were very fond of living there when we were first married. Adam is not one for convention and the fact that everyone else with families are living in suburbia is just another reason to stay clear of it. Right now, I think he sees all the good stuff happening, the changes, the development, and he is so draw to the movement of a city. I loved it when we lived there and I don't have a problem with going back, but I'm not so sure about it now when I have three young girls. I don't know that I want to raise my children in the city, not that there is anything wrong with it either way. I suppose living in a home with a yard is all I know and I long to give my girls everything I had--again the exactly reason for a change he would say. I think I'd have to do more research, talk to people, families, who live there and assess. Chances are though, when we do move downtown, it will mostly likely be when Megan is out of the house.
At any rate, I do enjoy the city. Adam and I go quite often when we're out together or with the girls like we did the other night. We were actually there Friday night to see the film Certified Copy, which I must say produced more dialogue between the two of us then any one film has in ages. It's an artsy film, mostly subtitled, pretty slow, I mean it's basically two people meandering around a small village in Italy having a conversation, but it's packed with life, relationships and how we all see the world differently. We both found it quite interesting, and so, on our way home we discussed, and while we discussed we walked and then drove the city streets, and I couldn't help but enjoyed the array of lights surrounding us that only a city can provide.
A city is many things, but dull is not one of them. If you look you will see it's full of color.
