Cold Blue Skies, Warm Fuzzy Sweaters and Camera Batteries...

So Oregon has been having some wiggity-whack weather lately. But whats new? It starts out really cold in the morning and then gets wickedly hot by the afternoon. Well wickedly hot to an Oregonion at least.
All in all I'm ready for the Fall. I say bring it on. I miss the changing colors of the leaves. I miss the brisk cold air. I miss wearing long johns and sweaters, slippers and blankets. I even miss scraping the ice off my windshield at 6:30 in the morning.
And as we speak I'm boycotting the warm weather. Its about 9 am on a Tuesday morning and really cold outside. And I know that by the time it hits noon it will be shorts weather. But I am keeping my white cardigan on because I can. So take that mother nature. (Although I will probably be regretting this decision by mid-day).
While watching the Today show this morning they had a story about this mother who blogs and has been an inspiration to many. She and her husband were involved in a plane accident that has left them in the hospital with serious burn wounds. The segment was about the amount of love, prayers and attention this woman and her family were recieving from her community of fellow bloggers. I was intruiged so I went and looked up her blog. Let me just say I love it. Its so upbeat and witty. My heart and prayers go out to her and her family.
I encourage everyone to go read her blog. Its about the joys of motherhood and life in general. I think it really makes you take a second look at yourself and your own life and the things we take for granted. I will say there are a few things I disagree with (I'm a democrat and she's obviously not by some of the comments she's made). But it is definitely worth reading. Not to mention she's a fabulous photographer.
