She Walks in Beauty

Hello Everyone! We are very excited to announce the creation of our new blog: daysingoodness.blogspot.com. The primary purpose of this blog is to clue you in on what's been happening with our little family of two. We hope you become avid readers.

We do not wish to make daily or even lengthy posts, but we will most certainly strive to always include photos, since we both love photography. And who doesn't love to look at pictures anyway?

However, we would like to begin with a poem:

"She Walks in Beauty" By George Gordon Byron

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!

This is one of Caleb's favorite poems. He even memorized it so that one day he could say it to his future wife. moi. I am so blessed to be that person. The title of our blog comes from this romantic poem. If you don't know already, Caleb is a huge romantic, and honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way. So our plan is to "tell of days in goodness spent" because no matter what happens, everyday is filled with goodness. You just need to look for it.
