First Week of January

Our time back in Colorado has been pretty quiet.  

It's been snowy and cold and we've been hibernating with occasional 

trips out for errands and school.  

I also started a new 52 week project.  Its one photo a week with prompts.  

So this week the prompt was "Fresh".  Here was my interpretation of the theme.  

1/52 {Fresh} A neglected house fern that I’ve been babying back into life, I love watching the new green //fresh// leaves coming through. It’s such a great metaphor for the new year. I think we can all relate to feeling a bit dry and neglected as the end of a year approaches and then feeling that first green shoot of hope, a fresh sense of renewal and purpose.

Ella has been sleeping terrible since we got back from Christmas vacation.  

Every night she ends up in bed with us and I am usually kicked out of bed (literally) by 6 am.  

Which is how I ended up sitting in the living room one morning and realized everything 

was glowing orange.  I went outside to see the sunrise and it was beautiful.  

Makes getting up that early a little more tolerable. ;-)
