Moving!!

sorry for the lack of post...I'm MOVING, my blog, that is!
the new stuff will now be here,
 thenewblog
although, it's kind-of like packing and unpacking boxes...everything is a bit of a mess...not to mention, the hubby has been out of town for entirely too long...and my house of cards is falling down around my ears! (:

oh well, hope to see you all at the, very unorganized, new home!

because at this age...your feet are incredibly important to you...

oh, I loved my boys feet...nothing says cuddly 'baby' like chubby little feet...

meet Kyndall

Deep peace of the running wave to you
Deep peace of the flowing air to you
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you
Deep peace of the shining stars to you
Deep peace of the Son of Peace to you
a community blessing.
