This new addition was inspired by a fellow mama and blogger from apples for poppyanne. If you have a minute please check out her beautiful blog. In an effort to be more present and grateful I will start to share this list with you each Friday and hope it will inspire you to look at the small simple things in life that we generally take for granted.

another good one! do you take your own photos for your blog? {like for this post and the one you posted after it?} if so, they are very good.

and it looks like your adorable little girls are twins. is that correct? i am an identical twin! i love to meet people who have them. how cool. i don’t have kids yet, but my first choice for a girl’s name has always been sofia or savannah. :)

i’ve only been at your blog a few minutes, and i keep finding all these little things that make me think it was serendipitous for me to stop by.

Yay for identical twins!! Yes, Emma and Sofia are identical twins. I love meeting adult twins and learning about their experinces. My first question is always “Are you close?” My hope is that my girls will be best friends.
I do take most of the pictures on this blog (the two you mentioned I did take myself, thank you). Those that I don’t take I will reference the source at the bottom of the post. Can’t wait to stop by your blog this weekend.
