Art

I couldn't resist sharing this sweet conversation William and I had yesterday, as we were driving over the Braes Bayou. 

William: Wawa
Me: That's right, Sweetie, there's water.  Where do you think that water is going?
William: Art
Me: Does that water remind you of art?
William: Uh huh
Me:  (After catching my breath and getting over my stunned reaction.) That's neat, William.  The water is God's art. You know how you create art in school? God created the whole world - the whole world is God's art. 

The Things Moms Get to Do...

I am so thankful to be a mom and to get to spend the time I do with William.  I am also thankful for the beautiful weather we have had recently!  Sunny, cool weather helps my outlook on life to be the same! 

As I sit here typing this, I'm looking at a quote from Sandra Bullock that I liked so much I cut it out of People magazine (about a year ago) and stuck it up on my desk. 

People: Now that you've gone public (with the adoption of son Louis), how will you balance motherhood with your career?
SB: I don't know. All I know is that I want to be able to enjoy being a mom. Doing all the things moms get to do, outside in the sun, in the world. The career will have to wait for a bit. I don't want to step into that world until I can find what room I lef my armor in. You need tough skin to bee in this business.

I just love that quote!  If I've already posted it, please forgive my mommy brain! Enjoy the pictures of the last couple of months.

The Giraffes at the new African Exhibit at the zoo are so awesome!

At the zoo with Alison & Jenna (and Paul, taking the picture!)

At the Livestock Show Petting Zoo - that baby goat was recently born

Also at the petting zoo, we got to pet this sweet deer. I think I was more excited about it than William.

Today at Discovery Green. William loved the fountains "wawa" best!

We had a gorgeous day and he was pretty excited! This picture captures him at this age so perfectly.



We will definitely go back in our swimsuit once it gets hotter.



Today was 'Toddler Tuesday' at Discovery Green and there was cute, kid-friendly band playing. We met up with some neighborhood moms. William clapped and liked the music... but not as much as the "wawa".
