Elsie Jane is more magical than I could ever have imagined and it just keeps getting better. There aren’t enough words and there isn’t enough cyberspace to fit them in if I were to try to explain how much I love her.
She has an ear infection that makes her mad. Oh, life. There are small things like ear infections and then really Big Things that are breaking my heart. It’s always something, huh? That’s why it’s so good that there are tiny soft socks and wrist wrinkles and wave-y little eyebrows that remind me of fuzzy caterpillars.
These are the things we have to focus on. All the small things that make up grace.
{I also wanted to tell you that I started as a columnist for She Posts this last week and I wrote about Steph from Adventures in Babywearing. I’m going to be writing there about people every week and I love that.}
Happy weekend, friends.

I often get bogged down in the little frustrations, and forget to remember the big joys. Or I am overwhelmed with the big fears, and forget to notice the little extraordinary details. Thank you for reminding me to look up from the bog and down from the overwhelm! (does that even make sense?) Love your new series, too, Heather. xox
Oh, my. Her eyes. Isn’t it incredible how our heart expands and grows with each child, so much that it hurts?
And I’m so sorry about the ear infection. August has one too. He and Elsie can be grumpy together.

When I enjoy other babies, they are never as adorable as mine!
I DO enjoy them, but always with the hesitation of proclaiming them to be as cute (or cuter) than mine.
With that said, Elsie took my breath away. She makes your stomach hurt with how cute she is! When you got someone like her around, it’s such a blessing to be reminded of the good stuff!
Congrats! Love that you will be there. xoxo P.S. I love baby Elsie.
She is magical. That paint color? Also magical.
Wow, that’s so cool! Congrats on the column and yes, I love me some Steph.
Congrats on the new gig! That is fabulous.
Elsie is so very cute, and I love the expression on her face in this picture. magic.
You’re writing somewhere else? Well, that’s just awesome. :)
And that baby girl of yours is so very precious. The love we have for our children…so crazy amazing.
Oh, how much do i know all of these feelings. It’s my entire world right now. Bursting with every inch of my youngest and pleading with time to let me hold it all a second longer. She’s beautiful!
She is too cute for words!!!
Yay for you in expanding where you write! I am thrilled for you!
Your Elsie is just gorgeous. Truly.
She is divine.
