Moments of Happiness and Moments of Sadness

I don't know where to begin. Then lets start with my watermelon philosophy, lol. Last couple of nights after Matthew follows a sleep we brought up to the room watermelon and ate. As I was eating chunks of the watermelon I noticed that I would always bite the sweet part first and then finish up with the less sweet side. Wow, how each part of the watermelon has purpose, one to satisfy my taste, and the other almost equivalent to a glass of water - just have not figure out yet what the skin can do for me, lol. 'Girl, it is just a watermelon from Wal-Mart' - my husband commented after I expressed my thoughts, lol, and we laughed.
Yes, lately, or I must say since Matthew was born, I definitely have refined opinion of life, or I must say I have purpose in life. Yes, last year my purpose in life was running in the forest and chasing birds, and other animals with my camera, and now its all about running around the bed for up to two hours a night with Matthew to put him to sleep, lol. Kidding aside, I still cannot figure out how we managed to teach our boy to sleep through the night. I have a feeling that my running around exhausts him, lol. Well, I continue to carry my camera with me everywhere, even in the house. On this photo Matthew is just under 3 months, and it is hard to believe that next week he will be already 4 months. All I can say, he knows the camera very well, when in the mood he will pose, and when not, he turns away. I am glad that we can communicate that much, as I would too run away from those crazy camera flashes, lol.Well, since I have been walking close to home premises, I now pay more and more attention to small things around me. As I was strolling Matthew on the driveway, and when he eventually closed his eyes, I started to photograph the garage brick. I swear, I start seeing contours of our continents, lol. And I do have many photos of the clouds too. Have you ever found yourself looking at clouds and seeing things, I did. I think last time I saw marching elephants, to my luck - no camera. However, having my husband around, I still get an opportunity to shoot some action photos. I do continue to shoot bumble bees, but I was lucky to capture birds in action.
Lastly, I would like to express how thankful I am for all the comments, and all your visitations. Yes, life with Matthew is very precious, and I want to enjoy every second - he is growing too too fast. Every day is a different day, full of Matthew surprises. In couple of weeks time, Matthew will be baptized. Unfortunately, we have been shocked with sudden death of my father-in-law on August 18, 2008. After long Hepatitis C illness, our dad collapsed. We miss him a lot, especially my husband, as he always had special relationship with his father. Matthew is our little miracle, as he had arrived just in time to be loved by his grandfather, and now to transition this special father-to-son relationship to my husband and Matthew.
