It's sad when someone you know becomes someone you knew. ~Henry Rollins
I held on to you for so long. For years. You were my best friend, my person, a large part of my meaning and my belonging.
The first few years, through the silence, it was still you.
But now I realize that you don't know me any longer. I've become unrecognizable. And I don't know you. You are a blur, fond memory and attachment. I love you, I am proud of you, and I still wish for you.
But now you are someone I knew.
And all I can do now is wish it was different.
Liam just rolled over! Four times! And I caught it on video!
He's so great.
We're had a great time lately, I've been too busy to write. But soon.
This is one of those moments. You know, the ones where, for a brief moment, life has paused and you are happy.
I find pleasure in such simple things. Painting my windowsills. The boy, smiling. A good song or a good lyric. A sunny day. Leaving work at 4, on time, with a day of productive work behind me. Walking into the daycare and being piled on by hugging four year olds. Time to sit and read. A hot bath.
What makes you happy? Where do you find your stillness?
There are so many things to worry about in the world. But it is the joy, the hope, that keeps us going.
Just wrote Brice a letter, a reply to something he sent me a few days ago. I miss him, more than anything at the moment. So I'll share some of his music, so you all can be thinking of him too right now.
Hey lady! Happy birthday! Hope you have the best day ever!
In other news, I've been given an insane promotion. In order to take this insane promotion, I am also back in school for a few semesters.
It's been an interesting week.
Just found this-
"Everything is okay in the end. If its not okay, its not the end."
I like that. A lot.
So I'm back into voraciously learning about photography again. I have a perfect little guy to take pictures of, and I want them to be perfect.
Anyone with any tips/tricks/tutorials I should catch up on?
Yay! Went to the doctor for another weight check today and Liam gained 2.5 oz! I was so excited- it really worried me when he kept losing weight. The doctor said he was perfect, and tried to take him home with her. I love Dr. Budai.
I love the way he passes out after eating. He's so cute.
