thankful for our way of life...way back then.

I had the chance, today, to watch some old "home movies" from way back when......from before our first baby was born....to several years after.  I was so happy to "feel" these moments again....the free spirit i exuded, the "hands-off' mothering i embraced once our first little joined us.....and just the adventurous spirit we lived with.......i love the photography....the barefoot, free, hippie vibe...the acceptance of life back then.....it helps me feel good about those early years as a very young mama.....just 21 .....and so lacking in experience.  life was so good. and i am so thankful for the time in which our children were born....and raised.  we adventured and lived life......and for that i am so very thankful. so good to relive moments that make us who we are today.....to relive the threads that make up our tapestry.
