I’ve been a lot less consistent in my blogging efforts of the last couple of weeks. Just saying, hi, still here. I’m awake and wired right now from having been up watching the eclipse. The sky was crystal clear and while we had to do some maneuvering on our tiny front lawn to see the moon, the urban light pollution didn’t seem to hurt what is a beautiful eclipse.
I woke the kids up as the shadow just began to cross the moon. We warmed up with hot chocolate and huddled under blankets. I love the look of wonder I managed to capture on their faces in this picture. Even the husband looks enthralled by a mere shadow.
