What I want

Oh, so many things…

To fit into this dress again…and have a place to wear it.

To have more time…

But mostly, more of these moments.

Need I mention that we were sitting on the front step drinking a glass of nice Pinot Noir when these were taken?  We are livin’ the high life over here. :)

What do you want?

    Oh I so didn’t go that direction today, although you hit the nail on the head, able to fit into a couple of my old dresses, more time and joyful memories for and of Harrison.

    Um, I also need some Pinot Noir.

    Lovely shots – as always.

    You are so right! I have tons of dresses I wished I fit in again… more time… all of that! LOL

    My daughter was definitely wanting something this past weekend… blue ice cream on a summer day!

    The dress, the time, the moments…me,too. The shot of Kai and dad, Kai and Anya holding hands…moving…priceless.

    Mine is up, too:

    Oh…wine and lovely children. Yeah, I want to change mine now. I want to be able to drink wine and fit into my old dresses with a little more time, too. All beautiful photos – I love the lighting in the dress one, and the kids…gorgeous as always!

    I’d take that glass of pinot any time. :) I can’t blame you for a picture of a clock too. Time slips away far too quickly.

    I took a bit of an abstract take on this thought too. I wish it was an easy as posting a picture of vente starbucks mocha!

    What a great post and a great idea for a post. What I want….I just want everyone in my family to remain healthy and I want more time together without the Army demanding so much from my husband…that’s all I want.

    I wish I could say that I didn’t have a dress (or three) in the closet I was hoping to fit in again.

    Here’s what I’m craving this week.

    Ah, yes, wine without the whine…

    I had so many ideas for this, but figured everything would seem so much better as they are if I could just feel rested.

    That’s not too much to ask for.

    I’m not asking for much either.

    I am so behind in things that I didn’t get to check out the theme and now I’m bummed. What a great theme. I have a dress like that…that I want to get back in. I just can’t give it away!

    Obviously I didn’t participate this week (the more time part rings true here!), but still wanted to say that I love your pics….especially the dress and ring-around-the-rosy ones!
