i know - it's not usual for me to blog in point form, but i can't help myself today...
* ephraim is officially one. He's doubly sweet - & still won't walk.
* today is valentines day... & all the little hearts & lovey decor remind me of the music softly playing as i was told my baby's heart had stopped beating... oh the years that have passed, little one.
* i'm almost done my book... as in, i'm days away. The cover is in it's final stages & the little details are all coming together. i can't wait to share it with you.
* i'm completely overcome with my inadequacy. i wish that creating things didn't make me feel so completely exposed and vulnerable - but my big sister told me to soldier on - & finish well - & so i'm trying my best to write for my Audience of One.
* My inlaws are here for Ephraim's birthday & they're taking us out for lunch today. i plan on eating big... huge.
* i cried last night 'cause i'm a girl - & i can't help myself.
That is exciting about your book! Good for you - you know you inspired me last November, and I went to work on a story/photo book that I had been "thinking" about for a long time. I thought if you can write a whole novel, with 7 children at home, surely I can get this project done with only 1 child left at home. I finished it and sent copies to family members. I was so pleased with the outcome and it was a great feeling of accomplishment.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your lunch out and Happy Birthday to Ephraim!
hee hee, I loved the part, I cried last night 'cause I'm a girl & can't help myself. You are such a sweetie Paige! Can't wait to read your book!! Hugs to you on this bittersweet day. Enjoy indulging! lol
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to read your book!! So exciting.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Ephraim xoxo
I am so looking forward to your book. I have unpublished children's books on my desktop that I have written and then left. You captured my feeling exactly when you said that creating something makes you feel exposed and vulnerable. Wow! Sometimes you say just what I am thinking.
