As much as I like the pictures I must say i love to read what you have written. I don't know if you've gone to school to be a writer or anything but they way you write and express feelings or thoughts really captures my interest. Just thought I'd let you know that there is a stay at home mom out there in this world that really enjoys your blog.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07567981936027127202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3918692864889720064.post-20545816268010871082011-07-25T16:01:50.849-05:002011-07-25T16:01:50.849-05:00I used one of your pictures:

I have always prided myself as being a "hardass, take life as I see it" kind of Detroiter. I am as "hard" as it gets for a chick. lol But tonight, I looked in my backyard....and seen a flicker of firefly and thought about your blog and how you see each day as beautiful and how the most simplest things are amazing. Then....I spent the next 15 minutes returning to that place I was when I was 12 yrs old as a girl.......catching firefly's and giggling. Thank you.Abfabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00915567122738245005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3918692864889720064.post-54557416913163468682011-07-14T14:37:29.546-05:002011-07-14T14:37:29.546-05:00Hi Aura,
I found your blog attached to one of my ...Hi Aura, <br />I found your blog attached to one of my good friends, and I have to say, I am a little addicted to it. I hope that doesn't sound creepy at all, but I love to read it while I'm at work. I work in a call center for insurance so it's not the happiest, but over the past week or so that I have been reading your blog (from start to finish) it has given me some bright moments between the phone calls, so thank you for that. <br />I laughed when you wrote in one of your posts that you were having a quarter life crises, I am 25 and my best friend and I joke about that all the time. I have recently gone through a lot of change that has brought to me that point that you often talk about, of trying to figure things out and discover who I actually am. I recently made a decision to pay closer attention to my health, and your posts about food and activity have given my tons of inspiration to kick that into full gear. <br />I live in Seattle so the weather is somewhat Colorado-ish and from your pictures I am dying to go there now! I always heard it was nice, but it was different to see it in your photos. I am really close with my sister and she and her boyfriend have wanted to move there for a while, we are entertaining the idea of us moving there together in a couple of years. <br />Oh and I have to mention I think you and I are music twins! I love all of the same music that you do, your playlists are just like mine! And thanks for rekindling my love of Brett Dennen, it had been a bit since I have listened to him and it puts me in such a good mood. I too have a very emotional connection with the music that I listen to, so hearing someone else talk about that makes me feel a little less weird! I fell in love with Jack Johnson like 7 years ago when I was on a camping trip in Orcas Island, so it always reminds me of the beach and makes me feel so warm and happy. So hearing him on your blog here and there has been great! <br />I admire your family life very much. I recently have had to make some tough decisions about my family that involve us not being as close (with the exception of my sister), and your family and the closeness that you share is a great example of what I would someday like for mine. And congratulations on the new life in your family, she is beautiful <br />Sorry for the novel here, your blog has just made me think a lot about my life, and I wanted to let you know (even though I am one of thousands!). I have to thank you for putting your life out there for people to see, that is very brave. I only read one blog, so I feel blessed to have stumbled upon yours. Again I hope it does not seem weird to say, as I do not know you in person, but you have given me a lot to think about, and the courage and drive to make a lot of very positive changes for myself. I feel like I found your blog at the exact perfect moment, and it helped me find a lot of what I was looking for. So again, thank you Aura. <br />HaileyHaileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01332116352355208081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3918692864889720064.post-72571293520594831312011-07-13T16:31:58.334-05:002011-07-13T16:31:58.334-05:00So sweet and so true.

I know that's nothing you haven't already heard from numerous others, but felt the need to say it anyway... ;o)<br /><br />I know you mentioned this many posts ago, but who is the artist of the song you use in your amazing Summer Adventures video? I believe the song title is "I Saw You First" but iTunes continues to fail me, and a Google search only results in John Cougar Mellencamp. :o/ Would love to add the song to my music library---hope you don't mind sharing (once again). <br /><br />Your daughter is a gem---kudos to you and your husband for making such a perfect little human being! It's so wonderful to see the beautiful bond you share with her, wearing her while gardening and photographing her while relaxing on the hammock. Sheer bliss. I hope everyday is beautiful and memorable for you and little miss Elodie. <3<br /><br />Sincerely, <br />Ashley--MassachusettsAshalillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08006862339571459711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3918692864889720064.post-42843317054936010072011-07-12T22:15:46.892-05:002011-07-12T22:15:46.892-05:00Wow.
