Back to the beginning.

Once upon a time, there lived a little girl named Anh. Although she was generally a joyful and happy person, she still felt slightly lost and needed some direction in her life. One day, she looked for inspiration to take her senior portraits and stumbled upon the lovely Micaela from The Drifter and the Gypsy. Never before had she seen such beauty in life. Suddenly, she felt brand new and happy beyond belief. Although new and shy to the vast community of bloggers, Anh decided that, she too, could create a blog, and inspire others to remember the beauty of the world. So thanks to a little bit of pixie dust and the ever-so-thoughtful Micaela, A Little Yellow Button was born. And of course, happy stories never have endings, right? :)

What inspired you to start your blog?

I know I promised to post pictures from my birthday celebration, but I had some unfortunate troubles with my camera, so I ended up not being able to take pictures at all! But here are some pictures of Jake and I from April when I did my senior portrait session with his mother. Enjoy!

Let's make a splash.

"If I want to be alone,

some place I can write,

I can read,

I can pray,

I can cry,

I can do whatever I want--

I go to the bathroom."

-ALICIA KEYS

Ah. Doesn't that quote make you smile? Maybe because, secretly, you'd like to admit that it's true for you as well! :) As I speak right now, my bathroom is being demolished right before my eyes. But do not despair, for a bathroom renovation is about to take place! Yes, it's very, very exciting. Oh, I cannot wait for the finished product, and the project has barely even begun!

Thank you so, so much for all of your warm birthday wishes and kind, thoughtful comments! They definitely made me feel special and added a bounce to my step. :) I had a very nice birthday celebration with my family on Sunday, and Jake is actually hosting me a birthday party at his house this afternoon since my own house is currently under-going these minor alterations.. I will be sure to post pictures of my evening of celebration!

Pray tell, what are your plans for this week?
