Paying Attention
Tags:

I am beyond excited that my sister and niece are coming for a visit this week. I'm hoping to work on my "paying attention" skills by becoming a bit of a tourist in my own town. Looking forward to showing my sister and Gabrielle (who is just a month younger than Anna) around and exploring some of my favorite shops & restaurants that I don't get to visit often enough.
And along these same lines I have a guest post about my life right now called "Around Here" posted at WishStudio. Definitely going to incorporate those words into a layout soon.

For a special occasion (and a little more money) I always love Marche. For everyday meals we love CafeYumm, Laughing Planet, or a Mexican restaurant called Los Dos Amigos.

Read your "around here" blog and saw the younger picture of you. That picture was the first time I thought Simon looked like you. I think it is the eyes. I love reading your stuff. You are so inspiring.

The quote is great! I work in a high school and it will be perfect in our Resource Room.

I can't wait to go read your piece on Wish Studio.... and I love that quote (above.) It could be the theme in fact for the project I launched today at Kickstarter http://kck.st/aCtHbL and something you're a master at: noticing small moments. xoxo! Christina

Thank you so much for always sharing things you have done on your blog. I love your links. I try to limit my reading (I could get lost all day :) ) and I don't blog hope so I would miss out on these treasures otherwise. Beautiful words by the way. Can't wait to see the page.
Would also love another peak into Anna's album.

Ali - your guest post is lovely. I kept hearing "Round Here" by the Counting Crows while I read : )
