some lovely mumbo jumbo.

The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life. ~Frank Lloyd Wright

being a new stay at home mom, i wonder where the time goes. yesterday i swear all i did was go to the store, and clean up messes. and i only have one baby! i did drop a bag full of gerber glass foods, and that took awhile to clean up, broken glass, and goop everywhere. when bryan came home i was exhausted, he asked what i did, and i had nothing to say. i do not want to wish my life away at all, but i do look forward to our first home. where i can paint the walls stark white, and wallpaper a hallway or bathroom, do as i please. i like the above quote because beauty is the things you see day to day, that can become mundane they are the small things. i have thought about this and beauty to me being at home all day. some new things i think are beatiful that i have never thought of, is laundry folded so neat and nice. my kitchen towell drawer, a clean kitchen, scoured sinks, the sound of the washer and dryer, the smell of clean laundry. a baby covered in head to toe, mashed up fruit and cheese. beauty is all around us, we do need to create beauty in our homes, not just by keeping our house clean, or adding a vase of garden flowers, or adding to our home with furnishings, but our attitude in our home also makes it a beautiful place to live and grow, and learn, and to be.
