Every single year since my oldest son Nic (on the far left of this photo) was ONE – we have gone to the same place to pick out our family Christmas tree.
It is a lovely little nursery – decked out with christmas decor, a wood stove, cookies, cider, santa and a beautiful black lab.
The same people and the same gentle energy is present every single time we arrive.
Each year I walk in with all four of my boys – and of course, it is a proud moment, knowing how much they have grown since our last visit.
THIS YEAR was very special to me.
Nic will turn 18 in February.
It was bitter sweet.

I was reviewing my personal blog that I kept prior to Unity – and this stuck out.
I wanted to share it with everyone.
I know that this lifetime really is one moment long.
All the memories will be tied up into one simple moment one simple feeling.
Love.
I am so filled with that emotion I sometimes feel as though my heart may burst.
To have been given so many opportunities to love.
I can’t even believe it!
The very best part?
It will only get better.
Hooray!

…and
This was my favorite quote today!
……if you stumble – make it part of your dance.
Love that.
I stumble a lot.
Enjoy your evening!
HUGS!
