Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment.....


Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment.....
until it becomes a memory.

Naples - Positano - Pompeii


Monkey, there is a "chick flick" (mommy and Mimi will teach you all about these - they are the ones your daddy and husband will roll their eyes at when you suggest one for movie night)....
but back to the "chick flick" - Under the Tuscan Sun -
There was a girl and she moved to Italy and she found a boy.....
she followed him to Positano....
after that it didn't go so well for them.....
but Positano was beautiful on screen.....
and I so wanted to see it in person.....
that's where Papa comes in.....
he has a way of making dreams come true.....
one day we will hold your hand and dry off your feet as we stroll these streets and play in the water again, TOGETHER with you.






                                                  


Pompeii

Literature tells us that that Pompeii was an ancient city near modern Naples that was buried in ash after the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius.....
to walk the streets that have been so beautifully preserved after so many years was breathtaking, a history lesson brought to life.....
and the more you know about he past.....
the better prepared you are for the future.

Once in awhile.....



Once in awhile, 
right in the middle of an ordinary life,
love gives you a fairy tale.

Five years ago today Monkey, your mom and dad married.....

They laugh together and they cry together.....
They play together and they work together....
Together they make this world a better place.....
Together they will be your mommy and your daddy.....
And together they created you.....

Happy Anniversary Taylor and Brian !!!

No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel.....


No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel
until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow.

Cannes - Antibes


In life there are lessons to be learned.....

Friends who introduce you to little "gems" like Antibes are friends that
should be treasured forever.....
Strolling through the streets of Cannes during the Cannes Film Festival without a single movie star sighting is still perfect when you're "strolling" with the right person....

Little Monkey, France holds our hearts and we can't wait until we fall in love with it all over again - this time with you by our sides.....

May you live as long as you want.......

May you live as long as you want
And never want as long as you live.
-Irish Blessing-

Our time in Ireland was short but our memories will be long.....
Having a glimpse at the country my ancestors called home is a priceless
gift I won't ever forget....
As we head home and Papa "keeps the blue side up" we continue to count the days, Monkey, until you are born and we can all hold you in our arms.
