Do not squander TIME, for that is the stuff life is made of. -Benjamin Franklin

Our new kitchen clock. In the middle of the night, we had bad storms. There was one extremely large crack of thunder that woke us all up. I also heard something fall. I checked, but didn't find anything. The next morning, Brian told me the kitchen clock had fallen off the wall. The thunder had knocked it off the wall. It was broken.

Today, we went shopping for a new clock. Hannah wanted this clock so bad. It was a heart shape and that is her favorite shape. I didn't want to get it because I thought it was too small. I ended up agreeing to this heart clock.

I hung the clock this evening and couldn't believe how adorable it looked on our wall. I was so happy Hannah chose this one and that she persisted in me getting it. Hannah sees hearts in so many things. We photograph things we see that have a heart shape. Every time I look at the time on this clock, I will think of my Hannah who loves hearts and whom I love very much.

Here are some of her current heart finds. Hannah found a heart shaped cloud the other afternoon.
Then she found heart shaped pickles at lunch last week.

Here was one of her first heart shape finds. She was eating an apple and her bite and my bite combined took the shape of a heart. That was one of the first hearts that started her photographing heart shapes in every day things. This one is my favorite. How did she ever see this tiny heart of chocolate milk in the milk lid?
How appropriate for her to find her favorite shape in her favorite chocolate chip cookies.
