home and comfort.

ben is my shadow.
as we sit together at the breakfast table, he pulls his chair close to mine and makes sure our legs touch.
he follows me to the back porch, the laundry room, even the bathroom.
he followed me all around the house while i snapped these photos too.
he's been feeling under the weather, and i have too, so this sweet thing we have going has been extra special to me.
he looks to me for his comfort and as a mother, that's all i've ever wanted.
our house is starting to feel like Christmas--even if it's 75 degrees outside and we are all wearing t-shirts and flip flops.
my favorite dresser in the living room was decorated by a certain five year old and i love it.
