Project 365: Days 250-256

I'm loving this month of {window light}, although I thought we'd have some beautiful window light while on vacation in the Smoky Mountains, and we basically had....none. No light whatsoever. In fact, during the day it was pitch black in the cabin. Peaceful, yes. Great for indoor photos, not so much. Nevertheless, this month has been tremendously easier and more fulfilling than last month.

250.365 I set you on the counter, and apparently you were thirsty because you put the filtered water faucet in your mouth.

251.365 "Dance. Dance" you say. Looks like it's time for a dance party in the kitchen.

252.365 The night you put your books away in the basket and knelt beside your bed for nighttime prayers by yourself, I thought my heart would burst. These were little things we've been working on, but it was one of my all-time proudest Mommy moments. When I feel like I'm doing everything wrong sometimes, that one moment gave me reassurance.

253.365 The suitcases for our vacation were an exciting and fun toy for you. Here you are cleaning Bob's face with a q-tip.

254.365 Your favorite part of vacation is always the bed. You think it's hilarious.

255.365 We went to the Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg, and unless you were strapped into your stroller, you were screaming or crying. Except for this split second when you watched the sharks swim past.

256.365 Lunch time is generally a happy time. Just look at that smile, you sweet little Cubbie.
