365-98 to 365-104 A Week in Pictures

  • Posted on April 21, 2010 at 8:30 am

Our weeks are sometimes so diverse, it’s hard to find a common theme. This is one of those weeks. From Folkstone to Norway, a bit of London, some nature and some routine, but always two constants: the people I love in the life we live.

Letter to a Six Month Old

Dear Kyra

I can’t believe you’re six months old today.

You’re asleep here next to me, and I look down over your long little body and my breath quickens as I try to take it all in. I can still see you, a tiny little curled up figure, barely bigger than my two hands lying in the same position this moment six months ago.

I see changes in her every day. Little things, like making the connection between hand and mouth. Or holding on to something. Or smiling. Or laughing. I love here how her smile reaches her eyes.

Growing Days

Things have been really busy in our little family the last few weeks. We seem to be settled in to our new roles of father, mother and baby, and by the looks of things, we’re all adapting to these roles quite well. I can’t believe that Kyra is 8 weeks old already, and the changes are phenomenal. Every day seems to bring something new.
