Lately, have been inspired by arts and crafts.
My friend took her niece to a family art class and invited Beli and I to join them. We happily said yes!
The theme that day was seahorses.
Much talent.
Beli did an amazing job sitting for almost two hours. She kept asking me for more colors.
My friend drawing a seahorse. I wished I had taken a final picture of the painting, it was very cool!
Beli's art work.
Ta, da! this lovely canvas is proudly displayed in our living room. A perfect gift for my birthday!
I had to work on my birthday (it happened last weekend) and I was nicely surprised by hubby and Beli with a cake and candles.
Hubby told me that Beli patiently waited for me to arrive so she could have some cake. Awwww.
I blew the candles and made one wish.
One wish only.
Strangely, I feel that I still have so much to learn about life.

Thank you for all your comments about suggestions for my photos. The packages keep arriving in the mail and I'm running out of space!LOL
I have been so busy adjusting at work that when I come home, I barely have time to make dinner, bond with Beli, and prepare to do it again the following day. Maybe it's because I have been out of the workforce for so long that I still can't accept that this is how it's going to be.
At least, it's a happy chaos!
Beli keeps us grounded.
Her smile, her innocence, her giggles remind me to stay in the present and stop thinking about the past, about what our life was before returning to the States.
Sometimes I feel so isolated.
Strange hu?

How do you stay in the present?
What keeps you grounded?
