this is my greatest meditation practice these days. this little being helps me stay present, awake, aware, and provides me with the biggest mirror into all my stuff, joyful and otherwise. mostly we dance and sing show tunes that we make up as we go. other times i wonder how im going to get through the day im so darn tired and sorta crabby. this girl is no sitting quiet meditation. she likes to be up and at it (and i’ve got muscles to prove it…without getting on my yoga matt at all!). though i can happily say, she’s sitting up on her own now, only toppling over occasionally. and self-entertaining a bit more, too. which, i hope, will allow for me to blog a bit more in WORDS and pictures. i’ve been really missing the writing part of my life, and the art-making, too…
which brings me to some very cool blog sites i found recently, thanks to an article in mothering magazine. for artsy mammas out there, there’s wonderful and inspiring blogs by amanda blake soule, sally shim, amy karol, stephanie congdon barnes, & eren san pedro. dig through their sites and you’ll find a few more that you may love. i found shutter sisters and artsy crafty babe, and i’m sure with a little more reading, i’ll find plenty more. dig in, and get inspired!
