Today, inspired by animals and the babies who love them, I’m collecting a few cuties from around the web (20 to be exact!):

Visualizing Time
I’ve been reading and re-reading your comments, Tweets and emails from this post, and I love how each of your stories are further cementing my need to re-evaluate how I perceive time.

You Are My Wild
Documenting my children is a huge priority for me, whether I’m writing a weekly letter to Bee or Instagramming daily moments that melt my heart. I know I won’t always remember the folds of her hands or hue of her newborn hair, but I can do my best to mentally capture these early days to

And although my old favorite was an admittedly expensive

Cork and Circumstance
Somewhere along the line of blogging and pinning and Tweeting and ‘gramming and all of those other social media apps (that, funnily enough, make me decidedly less social), I lost track of my first love: the inspiration board. The tangible, visual one – the cork board my mother gave me as a third grader to
