This evening, I was flipping through old digital photos (mostly of swaps) that I had hosted on Photobucket from my pre-Flickr days. So many of those photos exist nowhere else, trapped on computers that went kerplunk or on the laptop that was stolen in the home invasion we had right before we got married. Not so long ago, but it feels like forever.

Photobucket
Daniel took this picture of me when I was full-term with Graeme. I couldn't fit into any of my shoes, was getting very little comfortable sleep and I was 85 lbs heavier than I started 9 months before, but I was still literally glowing and gorgeous.

I forget, too often, that I am exactly where I am supposed to be at any given moment. I forget, too easily, that I am embodied in this life for a purpose that only I can fill. I forget, until I'm reminded by finding photos like this, that I am part of the divine whole.....with you.

Blessed, Blessed Be.

Really love this pic. When I was first scrolling through my f-list and saw that pic, I thought you were going to say something like "here we go again" ;)

Beautiful.
