a poem, and a belly video (not mine, yet) Current mood: cheerful
A poem I saw today in a chocolate wrapper: (from Song From The Persian)
Ah, sad are they who know not love, But, far from passion's tears and smiles, Drift down a moonless sea, beyond The silvery coasts of fairy isles.
And sadder they whose longing lips Kiss empty air, and never touch The dear warm mouth of those they love- Waiting, wasting, suffering much.
But clear as amber, fine as musk, Is life to those who, pilgrim-wise, Move hand in hand from dawn to dusk, Each morning nearer Paradise.
Ah, not for them shall angels pray! They stand in everlasting light, They walk in [love's] smile by day, And slumber in his heart by night.
-Thomas Bailey Aldrich

Saw this video on the myspace homepage today- my belly isn't there yet, but I remember it from the other 2 pregnancies! (Though my boys never seem to cooperate whenever someone wants to feel the movement or see them bopping around. . . maybe this little guy will be different!) Wierd, isn't it? :)
I'm a scattered, relatively sleepless and eternally behind mommy to three fantastic little boys. . . and they make everything worth it. (Sappy, but true) :)

Unless otherwise specified, all the photographs on this site were taken by me with my trusty little Nikon Coolpix 4200 point-and-shoot. The lens is getting rickety and the battery door is held on with a rubber band, but it's still working. If I manage to do any editing at all, it's very basic- I might crop or adjust the exposure a little, for instance. If you wish to reproduce any of my photos in any way, please just be courteous and ask my permission first. I'd be flattered. Thank you.
