1. Meds for the achy ear.
2. Cut and color for a friend.
3. 'The Man Cold' came home from work with a fever and chills and fell asleep 'watching' Reed during my appt.
4. Cousin play date involving the Wii. I might add, too close up of a game as well!
5. Sidewalk chalk love note from Kat. My favorite part of her sweet note, somewhat cropped out for this.... 'We want to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Happy Valentine’s Day'. Funny girl.
6. My favorite red gummy hearts found bulk at Winco. Very dangerous.
7. My shadow at 4:18pm. Late afternoon sunshine is the best, bring on the late rays.
8. My good book.
9. This is somewhat lost on the cropping too but Reed wanted to go potty on the toilet. So I let him even though I know it's just a game at this point. He was all smiles and laughs so I went and got my camera. I tugged on his shirt to make this a more 'family friendly' photo and that set. him. off. Completely. So instead of smiles, I thought this was just as cute, in a more torturous way.
10. Groceries from 3 stores.
11. Opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics.
12. Lounging on the couch during the long opening ceremonies.

Starting this challenge a month late and hoping I can stick with it. Go here to start yourself.

One more thought...

:: A year ago today (I randomly remembered shopping for Valentines), Milo lost his job. 12 months. Can you believe it? It goes so fast and yet at the same time, so much has gone on and changed. Even though this past year has been what seemed like trial after trial, I know we have been constantly watched over and even now, that doesn't stop. And for that I am so grateful.

{OK two thoughts.... I want to change the margins of my blog to accomodate bigger photos I (like this one for example) and such but it scares me, I hate messing with my template. Any suggestions?}
