The most wonderful day...

I have written Ad infinitum about family.  The importance of family and appreciating family.  There are no words to express how much I love mine and everyone who has become family to me over the years.  Today was one of those days when I looked around and saw my blessings.  

It started with the most beautiful email from the woman I love and respect more than anything.  It is ending with my wonderful husband bathing my children.  Life really is awesome.  

We spent the day with Jeff's cousin, her husband, and their newborn.  We had lunch, walked Lake Merritt, played at the park and watched the weekend Salsa dancers.  

But mostly, we reveled in the wonder of Sadie.  She is our newest member and we just adore her.

She came into this world....
Loved beyond words...

Everyone thought she was the cat's meow...
James tried to pat her head A LOT...

Now he just hugs her, hard....

Lilly thinks she needs a sister....
Jeff and I think Lilly has lost her mind...

We all want to nom-nom-nom this baby!

Family, and friends who have become my family are home to me.


I am headed out on Monday morning for an entire week with no cell phone coverage, facebook or twitter. I may die, or I may think it is the greatest thing ever. Either way, I will not be blogging, tweeting or facebooking. Goodness, I am scared. Hug me!
