Catching up...

Oh poor sweet blog-- always there, left in the shadows as I get on with living! I will try to catch you up a little as some people have been asking...

It has been such a busy summer as Charles and I settle in to married life and continue to work out what that life will look like practically. Also, as I develop my photography business. I am too too excited to announce that I have booked my first wedding! Ideally, there would be many more on the books to come :) All in all, I am finding this art form-meets-job a delicious treat to my creative little soul, even if it means I must work my rear-end off for very little pay right now to build it up! Check out the new website at: www.whispersoflightphotography.wordpress.com.

My handsome hubby is still pounding the pavement for jobs in the web-developing world. The decision is that if there's not a phone call with a perfect job soon, we'll head down to Milaca to move in with my Grandpa, who is very much missing my Grandma, and look for any old thing to pay the bills while Charles starts work on his MA in Psychology. He gets all excited when he reads articles about Neuroscience, of all things...

Daily, there will be a moment when I look up at him and the air is pretty much knocked right out of my lungs again as I am shocked once more to think that God gave him to me, me to him.

We have just today vacated the camper where we have been spending our first few months together parked in my sister's backyard :) We believe in having stories to tell the grandkids someday after all...

The writer in me has been lying a bit dormant these days. I think there is too much to say and I get overwhelmed. My means to say it all are so limited. So I try to listen more. Perhaps later it will be time to pen what I hear in the silent times now...

But, because I cannot help it, I have started a little project with my darling friend Lizzie which keeps us connected across the miles and miles of Atlantic. www.1000blessings.wordpress.com is an eclectic little list we've decided to start keeping listing any random thing we feel grateful for or about. God gives blessings so lavishly in the day-to-day. They pour out in such a torrent that if we're not careful to catch them, we'll miss them as they wash over us. So, Lizzie and I are trying to catch a few and hold them up to the light. To say thanks...

He is ever good, ever kind.
Listen, little heart of mine, and you'll hear Him breathing over it all...
