someone else's thoughts

"The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity." - Margaret Nadauld
"I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble." - Helen Keller

new lil' man in our lives.

Don't you just love neices and nephews? My sister's new little guy seemed the perfect way to break back into blogging after a long (but perfectly excusable) hiatus. I'll be back more later (I promise!) to post about some of our own adventures, but this needed to be shared first.

Jeanette suffered through years of infertility, morning sickness, blood clots, high blood pressure, two months of total bedrest, several hours of hard back labor, and an unexpected c-section. In the end, she was presented with this little darling.

And suddenly, it's all worth it.
