3. The tulips in Holland

By sea-

Florida, 2004

4. Creatures close enough to touch

And by heart-

5. My “something new” turn into my “happily ever after”

6. My baby become my oldest

7. And the pieces of my heart surround me.

  1. Sigh. Lovely. xxx

    This is so beautifully put and I love the way you’ve done this and included your children. I was thinking of doing this prompt (might still, on another occasion) and also thought my children would have to feature.

    Lovely post :)

  3. Amazing seven wonders. Love.

  4. LOVE that pic of the two of you. Swoon.

  5. Vinobaby says:

    Oh, you have seen a few things on my bucket list–the lava in Hawaii, the tulips, the sea turtle… And, of course, your last three things are just lovely, as always.

    Cheers.

    I wanted to do this one but I couldn’t wrap my head around how to write it. Are you sure you don’t want to start an online writing class? I get so many great ideas from Kat but I have such a hard time getting the words down onto the computer. They always seem to flow so naturally from you.
    I love the sea turtle photo! Aren’t they amazing creatures?!

  7. Awe – that’s lovely :)
    I was torn whether to include family wonders – I think I might have to make a separate 7 for that. hehe

  8. Shell says:

    So lovely. xo

  9. Emily Cullen says:

    What a beautiful post. I am so terrible at any kind of lists posts (bangs head against wall)!

  10. Alexandra says:

    Love the picture of the two of you.

    Wouldn’t this, with the captions printed out…look lovely in your bedroom?????

  11. Astra says:

    Ah, just lovely. Am planning on adding the hawaii wonders to my list next year sometime :)
    Thanks for sharing.

  12. Stacey says:

    So sweet. And definitely wonderful.

  13. Just beautiful, especially the ‘turned into my happily ever after’. So romantic.

  14. Elaine says:

    It’s all amazing but the “by heart” part, OH man, I’m melting. :)

  15. Leighann says:

    GALIT!!!
    That gave me goosebumps!
    GOOSEBUMPS!!

    Amazing.

    Also? The first picture of you two?
    Adorable!

  16. Dana K says:

    I love how you separated your seven wonders!

    If you ever get a hankering to see Tulips again, I highly recommend the area north of Seattle. Gorgeous! Totally makes you think of Holland. Huge festival…less expensive to fly there.

  17. Barbara says:

    So beautiful! I got teary eyed when you said your baby becoming your oldest. I’m not sure I’m ready for that yet!

  18. Krista says:

    Lovely. As usual. Always so breathtaking when I’m here.

  19. Jessica says:

    The best 7 wonders of the world.

  20. Kimberly says:

    Perfectly said

  21. Jessica says:

    Perfect, just perfect. I know we are the same age but did I ever tell you that the way you talk about your family makes me want to be one of your kids? :)

  22. Tina says:

    Wonderful, beautiful list of true wonders!

  23. Mama Track says:

    Yay–what great wonders! I’d say you’ve seen a lot.

  24. Andrea says:

    Sweet sweet! I wanted to do this post today but never got motivated enough to write it out!

    I am quite envious of the Israel mention on your list. That is one of my must do in my lifetime entries!

  25. CJ says:

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I concentrated on the actual places I have seen for my 7 wonders, but of course, there are places in everyone’s heart that are full of wonder, too.

  26. Sara Padilla says:

    I love the writing that accompanies the images. So very lovely!

  27. Kimberly says:

    Beautiful. Amazing wonders.

  28. What amazing 7 seven wonders! I’m so glad you were able to experience each and every one of them!

  29. Erin says:

    Simple, yet so beautiful!
    I Just love to see such fun pics of the kids! They growing so fast!

  30. Sandy says:

    Awesome seven wonders, I wouldn’t mind going to Israel.

  31. Excellent wonders! And great pictures too :-)

  32. John says:

    I need to write this – unfortunately, there aren’t pictures that exist for many of my list — though there are the memories, that play loudly, in my head.

    It’s ok that my “oldest” will always be my baby . . . even as my “youngest” will always be my baby, too. Right?

  33. Moomser says:

    I love your seven wonders and I love how you presented them!!

  34. Arnebya says:

    #6 is happening for me next week. It’s so surreal. It’ll always be a “wonder” to me that she was ever a baby.

  35. Charlotte says:

    Awwww, I love all of these pictures, Galit. You have a life rich with the best treasures–beloved memories and a gorgeous family.

  36. What a gorgeous way to express your seven wonders.

  37. So perfect, as always.

  38. Rachael says:

    What a great post. I love that wonders can include ANYTHING that’s amazed us or filled our hearts

  39. Sweaty says:

    Simply WONDERful… there are no other words, Galit.

  40. mish says:

    Popping in from WOE weekend linky.
    This is priceless…..

  41. liz says:

    Awww! I love how you segmented them!

  42. January says:

    Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I love the last line. Perfect. And what a great picture of the pieces of your heart.

  43. I want to go traveling with you. You’ve picked some great spots.

  44. Helene says:

    That last line…ugh, totally pulled on my heart strings! Such a lovely post with sweet sentiments!

  45. Beautiful!

  46. That’s so pretty. I especially loved the ending “And the pieces of my heart surround me”

  47. Victoria KP says:

    Sigh. Another gorgeous piece Galit. Just lovely.

  48. Sweet x 7, just as I expected.

  49. May says:

    Those are wonderful wonders!

  50. Those are really amazing wonders. The common denominator of all: love.
