if it’s not obvious from the happiness on instagram, i’m loving spring. and i had the opportunity to meet this guy yesterday.
you’ll tell me if get too happy, right?
if i go about documenting reasons for it, moments with sweet people such as this are going on the list.
i love seeing brides become mamas – and how they find their perfect mix of love, joy & instinct. we become someone new as we hold a babe.
and that’s how spring feels inside to me…that there’s beautiful change and it’s purposeful and good. thank you for the huge response to [ Gather ] – yes, we’ll hold another…not sure when but we won’t make you wait too long! xoxo, -melanie-
lovelies from around the web

Have you heard of Circle? We don’t have screen issues currently in our home because Audrey only uses my iPad when we travel but down the road in jr high/high school, this might be helpful. (via Becky Higgins blog)
I read, The Big Disconnect in December and truly, I think every parent should read it…it’s a rough book to get through sometimes because of the language/stories that are so sad but it spawned a ton of really good conversations between Jason and I. It felt particularly applicable to us but i loved that each age was addressed so well.

It’s more than a little difficult for me to resist draping pom pom garlands everywhere – and if I can’t manage any longer, I’m buying them all here.

You always have the best sources! Love that idea behind Circle!
that’s so kind, elizabeth – thank you!! my brother *just* shared about something called ‘lumi’ that also has cool features…right now, it’s not an issue since audrey doesn’t have any wifi devices but it’s going to be something we need to explore in the coming years!
