I wanted to do a round up of photos from our trip but I was finding the task a bit daunting, so I decided to simplify. One photo of Tiny in each country we explored and the finale ended up working out to be one of our very few family shots. What a wild ride it was, not her first big adventure but the biggest outside the womb (I'll share that other story sometime soon, it really deserves its very own post). Oh the places you've been little one, it really goes to show - home is where your heart is. xo

The English Countryside

"I almost wish we were butterflies and lived but three summer days -- three such days with you I could fill with more delight than fifty common years could ever contain."

"A portrait of my daughter once a week, every week in 2014"

Lottie Cakes: This week we drove up the English countryside on our way to Scotland, Stopping along the way to visit friends and explore. In this photo you were picking your eggs for breakfast, still warm from the nest. When told you could keep three, one for each of us you got so excited you clapped your hands together, an egg in each, cracking them open and cracking us up! 

Lately you have been confusing me, your so very tiny at only two years of age but sometimes you seem so wise beyond your years and I forget how truly little you really are. Then you get sleepy and curl up in my arms and I get a glimpse of my sweet newborn who always needed to be close. Your chubby little cheek squishes up against my chest and as you nod off my mind goes back to that ever smily baby and I can't believe how far we've come. I love you ginger lady.
