loving much today.

lOviNg......
progress.
being self aware!
even the knowledge of what to work on....isn't that a bazillion times better than just not having a clue?!
my cute cute, such darn cute boy.
even loving the rush of preparing for (gulp) middle school- electives, classes, a new school, new peers- all of it.
family.
friendship.
our space (even in the totally lived-in condition it's in at the moment).
the possibility of a new space (slightly more exciting in this moment than terrifying).
the wisdom of leigh.
my patriarchal blessing. and it's promises...they are actually my deepest desires.
getting to know a sister...my sister.
the knowledge of a tangible existence of a dad. and a really beautiful song that makes me weep. and that i saw my uncle weep when he heard it, too.
the anthropologie knobs slowly finding their way onto my sewing table drawers. the fact that i even have a sewing table...with a sewing machine on top.
reading ActiveBirth to prepare for beth's birth of a ridiculously cute boy (i know i can't see him, but i just know it!).
white, cream, and black. and yellow.
my portfolio...and upcoming opportunities to show it off.
the austinWaldorf school...even though i'll likely never officially be a part of it.
my church calling...and the rush i get adding something significant to my ward (even if just a good lesson to a cute kiddo that clearly got the message).
the feeling of being a part of a church family.
&more.
there's way more.
like the $11 tennis shoes i got today that i swear were made for my arches.
and the image i have of alec and i attempting turbo jam at 6am...it's quite a funny site, and we look nothing like the video, BUT we're loving it.
big/little, important/or not....today i'm in love with it all.
& i love that.
