This year I decided that I really wanted to slow down for the Holidays, Really slow down and take in the events and activities and sights and sounds that make the magic of the Holidays so special. Last year I worked non stop editing and taking family pictures up until the last minute. It was a bit hard to enjoy the little things with my family.
The girls have grown so fast this year. Its kinda like when they were only one. That first year of life things change every month so dramatically that you feel like its a new child right before your eyes every month. Well, that exactly what happened again this year! Both girls now 9 and 13 did a lot of growing and changing. It really never stops being amazing and exciting to think about growth.
I thought maybe I needed a a good year of growth myself. Evaluating where I need to change, fixing the broken parts and reinventing the other parts. Like a 40 year tune up. I have been running here and there, doing this and that, and maybe I need to question myself more, about all the this and thats, and does it really matter, and if not then what does.
Fall is a good time to do this. Everything changes and prepares for winter and reminds us that change is good. Change can help us be stronger, more prepared. I like calling it Autumn. Fall sounds like a negative to me, Autumn sounds graceful and mythical. Thats what Autumn is to me, graceful, colorful and strong, thats what I want to be someday…….graceful, colorful and strong.
