Gracie

I have writer's block.

My fingers are itching to type

and yet..

[crickets]

Often the photographs I post give me inspiration,

a starting point,

to write a little something on the blog.

This shoot is no exception.

Baby Gracie is undeniably adorable.

Looking through these images..

Strikes a chord of maternal instict in me.

Excites me as I dream of being a mom one day.

Even brings me back to thoughts

of my own mother,

of her love.

Takes me back to the weekday afternoons spent

at Gracie's momma's house

when I was a child.

Reminds me of times sitting in art class in university,

Jacine (Gracie's momma) and I

gushing over our now-husbands.

Blows my mind that Jacine now has children.. plural.

Makes me think how the time has flown.

All these thoughts

but not enough consciousness to expand

on any.

My brain is blocked

with tiredness.

Must nap.

The end.

(Zzzz.)

PS. Jacine (and Tyler and Janis), your family is wonderful and I am soo happy for you.
