guest posting today at pretties & posies





several weeks ago
melanie asked if i would write a guest post for her

funny thing , i had already written one 
& had it sitting in my drafts just waiting for me to publish
& it just so happened to be about her

i'm completely smitten with that melanie girl!
her tender spirit
 her big love for her baby girls

how she shares the trials she has endured
&  the unimaginable heartache experienced from the babies she has buried

she shares all this & more

she's able to mix real life
real broken moments
real hopes for her future & dreams for her family
she share from her soul
& she always touches mine

she mixes the tender
right along with glimpses into her
gorgeous gorgeous home
( my love for it is sinful)



if you haven't met melanie
you're in for a real treat


curl up in your favorite chair
& spend some time getting to know her

i'm sure she will touch your heart as she's touched mine


melanie, thank you again. i'm honored to call YOU my friend

xo

{ps~ i'm still trying to organize photos taken
over the summer

here's a few i thought
would be perfect for today}
