One of my older brothers said that my blog is inspiring. He was talking about posting on his own site: greenegenes.net But, then someone else said that the picture of Caroline and I at the Ocean looks like one of those posters with a 'hard-to-follow' quote at the bottom.
I have to say. There is nothing like having a child to remind us that there are wonderful things in the world. Furthermore, she is amazing to watch. She can climb stairs, has started talking (not to us, in English, but talking nonetheless), and you can actually see her thinking (about things like: should I army-crawl or regular crawl, eat all the cheerios or one by one...).
What I'm saying is, life is pretty amazing (and also pretty dark - but I'm not writing about that). I think I wish I were still learning and growing at the rate she is. My friends and family would certainly appreciate it I think.
What is amazing to you? Even if today was difficult... What is beautiful?

i haven't checked your blog in a long time... mainly because i thought you had given up updating it. but now i'm in class trying to read all i've missed. the pictures are adorable!
What is amazing to me is that so often our life stories are intricate and beautiful story bookish... but because we live the day to day, bread and butter in them, we fail to take note until someone points it out to us!
What would people say if I sat at a table with food smeared all over my face...then again I am not beautiful child. I appreciate that you share your family, and I appreciate that you like the Ocean. I am a So Cal guy who misses the Ocean everyday, and I only wish I had loved it when I lived there!
What is beautiful is how God has given us the ability to see truth, and good and beauty, in all different mediums. Movies, music, books, people, nature, my dog... There is something there that is True and beautiful all the time, I just have to look to see it.
