Happy to a fault?


I was feeding Jane today and she was so excited, I could barely get the spoon in her mouth. I had to avoid making eye contact with her because when I did, she'd flap her arms, bounce up and down and squeal. EVERY TIME! Needless to say, most of the food did NOT go in her mouth. I was slightly less messy than she was in the end.

Strangely Perfect

Have you ever felt like things are so wonderful in your life that it's strange? Really strange?
Although I have projects to conquer, play dates to meet, a new business to start, callings to fulfill and NYC to contend with, (not to mention the constant demands of being a mother, wife and homemaker), I feel like my life is strangely perfect right now.
Hannah has been this amazing little girl lately. She is very mature and very well behaved, relatively speaking. She is almost completely potty trained and she often ASKS to take a nap or go to bed. She has a huge vocabulary and will attempt to repeat anything we say. All that and she's not even 2! She is also a very sweet and loving big sister to Jane.
Oh Jane! Jane O(pal). I just want to eat her up! She is so happy and alive. She can brighten any day. She is so patient that it teaches me to be more so. What an angel!
And then there's Dan whose sole purpose in life is to make sure I am happy (that's what I believe). He is so supportive and interested in everything I do . He is such a fun daddy, and he absolutely adores his girls (I knew he would!)
Of course, I have great families and true friends, the best anyone could have.
So my point in all this is not to boast or to jerk a tear. No! My point is that I am happy. Even if everything changes tomorrow, I still will have had this time of strangely perfect happiness.

Miriam Lovell Photography Website

I am happy to say that my photos can now be viewed at miriamlovell.com. I have Dan to thank for creating the site, and I am happy with the results. It is just how I wanted it- clean and simple. Thanks Dan. You're awesome! I couldn't help learning how to create web pages myself. I found it quite satisfying.
