I HEART Jennifer Many!

Look at what arrived in my mailbox yesterday! An amazingly adorable and creative handmade squid dress for the baby (her brothers love giant krakens). Would you look at this pattern and the gorgeous fabric! And... a hand embroidered ladybug with kite undershirt. I LOVE THEM! Thank you, Jen, from the bottom of my heart. (I really think you should start your own product line... you have such talent). Love you!

Kindergarten Boy!

Yay, Ezra! You did it, your first full day of school! You were very brave this morning (even braver than your choked up Mommy and Daddy :) We are so proud of you. xo

First Day Grade 2

What a relief to start the school year off with no tears from Noah! He was a bit nervous, but walked in with so much more confidence than last year. He kept his grandfather's handkerchief in his pocket, along with a painted ladybug rock that belonged to me as a child. He said the day went great... but, then later tonight asked if it was the weekend yet! Ezra starts next week. He's nervous the day will be long. While Noah was at school today, he kept asking if it was time to pick him up yet, and, "Is this how long I will be in school too, Mom?!" Ahhh... the joy of transitions and changes :)
