As a child I wrote constantly and through high school and college I lost touch with it, other then my constant journaling.  When I discovered blogging I rediscovered a great joy of mine!  I feel like I get my own brain space when I escape motherly duties long enough to type away.  Sometimes I find a picture like the one above and want terribly to tell you something related to it.  Often the story or interesting connection comes and other times I am left sitting  and contemplating what to write for lengths of time&#8230; either way I love the game&#8230;. the playful mind game that is writing, grabbing the lightning fast thoughts and pining them down with pen to paper or finger tips to keys.<\/p>\n<p>A Bit Of Her<\/p>\n<p>The photo is, of course, of my sweet third born child, Little Woman, so enough about me&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>My little Celtic princess:)  Your pet name turns to lassie as I pull this dress over your head. I like buttoning up its field flower buttons, tying its big ribbon at the back and flaring out the big warm skirt for you.  I can&#8217;t help but do your hair in the &#8216;princess style&#8217; that I did for years on your older sister, specifically when she wore this same garb.  You always smile big for me when I put it on and even though it isn&#8217;t your favorite (that would be the pink one with strawberries on it&#8230; interestingly enough also your sisters favorite at this age) you humor me and wear this dress often.  I think you enjoy how warm it is this time of year and you are wise&#8230; you enjoy the joy I take in it, on you. <\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">A bright Celtic princess still abides in my house.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">My bonny lassie, my little lady,<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">in her dress dancing and prancing about.  <\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">She&#8217;s pretty and sweet and thoughtfully strong. <\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">In the hearts of mine and her daddy&#8217;s, forever is never too long.  <\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Dear lassie, remain always this way for me.<\/span><\/div>\n<p>TTFN<br \/><!--Session data--><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Bit Of Me Honestly, I love to blog, I love to write.
