I may not have posted a blog for some time, but my life has been full of a new kind of creativity and wonder. Spending a week a month with my beloved boy in Long Beach, CA, marveling at the wonder of how quickly babyhood passes by. Nana Weeks became a central part of all of our lives, finding new ways to grow and nurture and love my family. The center of all of it -our wondrous Ezra, eternally happy, bursting with life and energy and curiosity. I began his Books of Ezra as a way to tell him his story through the eyes of his Nana and Papi, to capture those moments he will never remember and to share with him the way we have seen him and celebrated him. Each picture tells a story, each has a caption and shows him his early life as we have seen it. The first year fills two albums, his second year, already two months underway will fill the next two. Creativity and expression are still central to my life and my days, there are just new ways to live those out - whether cooking for Ezra and his parents, making Ezra's birthday party decor, or planning our travel - it is all about expressing love. Love is a verb, it is doing and every small act of our daily lives can be about that sacred action.
