A SERIES OF MOMENTS


Our lives are made up of a series of moments. If you're
lucky you'll get to have hundreds, even thousands of
them. There will be small moments. Moments when
you're doing something so mundane you won't realize
you're in a moment. There will also be big moments.
Life changing ones. There ones will be in your memory
for an awfully long time. Keep them all safe.
This is a moment.










My days have been filled with
highs and lows, gut retching
emotions that have left me
feeling utterly drained.

I learned this week that the
six degrees of separation can
really be the two degrees of
separation and because of
this blog there is a dear soul
in this world that I can not
say thank you to enough.
I'm sorry I am not being more
clear, but  I can say that miracles
still happen because I lived
one this week. It really is amazing
just how close we all are to each
other.

My ten year old baby, Twinkie,
isn't doing very well and I have
been a little worried.  He has
been dealing with terrible allergies
and now has a hacking cough,
poor baby.

I won a beautiful giveaway hosted
by the ever lovely Donna and am
looking forward to casting on this
yarn for a new pair of socks.
I also one a spot in Michellegd's
28 Moments e-course which looks
to be a lot of fun. Thank both of
you ladies very much, I am honored.

The weather has been very spring like
this week, and I even noticed the
blueberry bushes are beginning to
bud. Tomorrow rain is predicted along
with a new cold front . Crazy, crazy
weather. And while I am still wishing
for snow I did take advantage of the
warmer temperatures to sit outside in
the sunshine and knit.

Today I wish my oldest son a happy
30th birthday, it went by in a blink,
really it did.  I love you from the bottom
of my heart.

I hope you enjoy all the moments
of a beautiful weekend.

Much love,
Tracey
XO

  2. Beautiful words and images, Tracey. Congratulations on your winnings - how fun! Sitting in the sunshine...knitting?! Sounds blissful, especially with those special projects on your needles. Hope your Twinkie feels better soon. And no kidding about time going by like a blink! My eldest just turned 21 last weekend - how could 21 feel so fast?! XO

  17. with social media and other things, I think the 6 degrees has definitely come down to 2 degrees of separation. The world is becoming so aware of our connection!!! your post is so lovely... I like the picture of you and your baby.

  18. Oh, Twinkie, feel better! I can't believe your blueberries are budding already! I am thinking of planting container blueberries this summer.

  19. Time goes by just too fast doesn't it? What a lovely looking baby and great photos as always. I have just planted a blueberry plant can't wait for it to bud. Enjoy all your moments.

  20. Our oldest will be 30 this May... He just let us know he's passed his boards for his veterinary studies and will be interning locally for the next year. A broken relationship that has been since he was 18 will, Lord willing, be provided opportunity to begin mending. :)
    My daffodils have broken ground...I'm not ready for spring and the garden, although I am planting lettuce this weekend. Like you, I am craving fresh things from the garden. xo Lisa
