JOY! JOY! JOY!


This is my son, Andres, at 6 months old.  When I am consumed with life's burdens and find myself short of breath and overwhelmed, I look at the baby pictures of my boys and giggle. In that space, I am able to exhale. I remember how he smelled that day, fresh from a soak in his little tub. I love the way the sunlight touches the back of his head and slides down the slope of his tiny back. I'm hoping this will have the same effect on you. I am moving to a largely unfinished house today and have to face everything that means, full force. So I start the task by taking deep breaths and cashing in on a few giggles.  This photo guarantees it.
