we had the most wonderful weekend out and about together
both saturday and sunday
the weather couldn’t have been more perfect on both days!

it’s getting harder to keep this 52 project going with only being with Lilian every other week but i am trying my best to keep going
it’s important to me
and maybe some day it will be important to her too
this was our last picture together before we were apart for two weeks (it was painful)
she was in west virginia with William visiting family and i went to los angeles to visit Connie
thankfully we are together now for two weeks

reading her “book” on a rainy afternoon
she’s only been gone for two days and i miss her like crazy already
ten more days until i see her face again
and fourteen more days until she comes to stay with me again
time cannot go by fast enough…
happy monday friends

remote learning doesn’t mean staying in your pajamas around here
just like last school year, Lilian continues to make her bed and get herself dressed for her school day every morning
she also continues to get all of her work done and take pride in it

we had ourselves a quiet, mostly at home weekend
her request
got all caught up, cuddled, had sleepovers in my bed, watched her favorite shows, baked…
nothing better
happy monday friends

#mamaandlilianfollybeachtrip2020
it’s saturday morning and i’m writing this post in bed while sipping coffee
it’s quiet
Lilian is at William’s for the week
this will be our second time sharing her this way since she and i moved into our casa azul
our life is different these days
the same in many ways but different
it’s been a while since i have come here to share anything other than project fifty two posts
and i am not sure if this morning is the time to share the emotions of going through a separation and having to start over again on my own
this morning i mostly just want to share pictures from our week at folly beach during the first week of back to school
summer was certainly different this year
for everyone i guess
i’m thankful that we were able to get some beach time
it had been since february since i/we had seen the ocean
the beach is still where i feel my best and where i feel we are our happiest
until next time. hopefully sooner than later

first day of fifth grade
during a pandemic and 100% remote home learning
so different
so strange
