the joy is in him

8th August, 2007

Miles started walking properly!
He's been able to walk for ages ~ around furniture, along walls, etc, but we've not pushed him. Easier said than done. Trying to remember to enjoy every moment. Embrace him for who he is in the moment. No need to be bigger, better, faster, more ___.
Anyway, today we were with Sarah & Mia, Beth & Lucas & Grandma Leighton, and Miles was watching Lucas stumble around. He looked him up & down with curiosity & then.... comprehension. 
"I can so do that". He stood up & walked. Just like that. Yay for him. 
& still we don't push, no 'one more step, show mama', none. He is so confident. He did it for himself. Not to please us. The joy is in him. I love it.

Waking up.....

My baby is 2 days off 20 months old!

I seem to have small pockets of time now where I am baby free & my thoughts are drifting back to opportunities for self expression. At the forefront of my mind is unfinished, actually unstarted, pieces of art & joy that even with the very best of intentions have never found a way out of my mind. The first of these is a record of my boys life & of our family's most precious moments. I have, at times, been great at jotting down dates ~ stories ~ moments & at photographing them too. At other times, I've been less so. So this 'blog' is in fact to be a life journal, compiled in memory not time, at least until now. So an exciting journey ahead ~ finding, reading, remembering & matching as I piece together the last 20 months & beyond.......

If you know us, or if you don't, please let us know you've been. Leave a comment ~ a memory, a thought, an emotion. A wish for my little M.
Peace & love to you all x J
