Dandelion Babe

I randomly shared about how cool I think dandelions area on Instagram today.  Sooooo random y'all.  But hey, that's me, so here's my dandelion post + some cute pics of Molly Grace of course! 

We only had to show her a dandelion once for her to realize their awesomeness.  She still gets way too close while blowing and gets them all over her lips, which is actually quite funny.

I think a lot about how creative God is, probably because I'm an artist and find it fascinating that He created us in His image...as creative beings!  But I could never come close to making a dandelion.  If you ever stop to notice all the intricacies in just nature itself...it' fascinating!  And to know that God orchestrated it ALL and we can take no credit for any such thing!  It's just flat out great.   

I think we should be really encouraged that such a detail oriented God holds our lives and future in the palm of His hand!  So easy to get wrapped up in what's happening down here...and lose site of the enjoyment that's right in front of us, as simple and at the same time as complex as a well crafted dadndelion! 

Have a great day y'all!

Happy 1st Birthday MOLLY GRACE!!! Probably sounds way too typical to say "I can't believe it's already been a year!"....but I really can't! This time last year I was in the middle of labor, as you decided to wait a week past your due date to meet us! My water broke in the night and at 3:00am we arrived at the hospital! Alongside our sweet doula, we started waking the halls, then in and out of the tub, sitting on a birthing ball...all in the big ole effort of getting you into our arms! I look back on that day, and time was completely insignificant, and nothing else in the world mattered. And as tough and strenuous as labor is, I miss that day and that feeling of bringing you into the world! It's the best discomfort I've ever experienced, and I'll never forget all the feelings I felt that day and night. We left the hospital only 24 hours after you were born, cause we just couldn't wait to get you home! You are the SWEETEST, loving baby, full of life and bouncing off the walls! You definitely take after both your mom and dad with your energy and spunk....guess we asked for it! You crack us up when you laugh at yourself.....you have quite the silly personality and I just love it! You love to play and you play hard. Hiking has been your favorite adventure during your first year....you've been too many times to count! You have 8 teeth, walking every where, saying "mama, dada, bye-bye, night-night, Dougie" and you copy lots of other random things we say, and you have your own sweet and jabberish language....talking allllll the time! We are so thankful God blessed us with you.....you are the joy of our lives and a light in our home. There is no one else like you, and Jesus loves you soooooo much! What an honor we have to be your parents! I gush over being your mommy, and I pray this year is full of new experiences, fun, and love! We ❤️ you Molly Grace!!! #MG1YearOld #mollygracebeasley #lifewithmollygrace #oneyear #babysfirstbirthday #baby #babygirl @zipadeezip #zipadeezip

Y'all, this was too perfect! @amandarosenorton got here right when MG was waking from her 3 hour nap...whaaaaat?! So we went in and captured all this greatness! Thanks aunt Amanda! Also, BIG shout out to @zipadeezip who's been snuggling this baby since she was 4 months and rolling around everywhere! It's a great, safe way for your baby to be wrapped up and move at the same time! #mollygracebeasley #MG1yearshoot #baby #babygirl #babyphotography #subjectlight #childhoodunplugged #letthekids #candidchildhood
