Since I spend most of my time behind the camera, I don't get photos of me and Jilly together very often. I used my last Groupon to get one of the two of us. Turned out pretty cute.
The journey is 365 days.
The purpose is to be reminded that the most important things in life are often the most simple.
My hope is to get back to basics and remember all my blessings; to never be at a loss of things to be thankful for; to sometimes not need words. This is my journal of these things.

Day 264
Jilly received a package in the mail today from her Uncle and Auntie in Hawaii. They recently went to Disneyland and brought her back some stuff including a stuffed Minnie Mouse which she insisted on carrying everywhere for the rest of the day. Minnie went to Grammy's house and helped do sidewalk chalk. Good times.

Day 249
Daddy built Jilly a "sensory table" this weekend! We put a tub of water in it and Jilly played all afternoon in the cold and rain. We had to bribe her to come inside and when she finally turned to leave it, she said, "I YUV my new table Dada!!!"
It was so worth it.
