This months project is… LOVE…

how perfect… with Valentines day and all!
However, my LOVE is simpler…

Love to me is the tiny hand of my 2 month old baby… nothing is more precious to me than my children, and these little fingers are more than my “Joy”… they are my tiniest LOVE!

FUN FUN FUN!

Yes, I would have gotten AJ too… but he’s under the weather, so he sat this family session out :(

My pal Jodi over at MCP Actions is running a fun new 2012 idea,
called MCP PROJECT 12.. which I am happily partaking in!

With MCP Project 12, she will give us (her happy cronies)
a theme each month, we than photograph our “project”
and post it to her site.. FUN!
If any of you are familar with the popular 52w project,
this is the same sort of thing.. and I’m just happy to partake.

Theme 1 for January is RESOLUTION… PERFECT FOR ME!
Esp since one of my resolutions is to do a 52w or 12m project just like this.

So here we are… my RESOLUTION is to do fun & creative things for myself!
1) Enjoy the MCP Project 12

2) Read more books

and most important..

3) enjoy time with these 30 little toes that I love and adore!!!
