Project: Organic Pillow Cases

I'm in love with this organic cotton flannel. Fanfare. By Cloud 9. It's for the boy, who aggressively buries his face into his pillow at bedtime. Easy-peasy. The best kind of project.

To my sweet darlings

I love your sweet smell.
I love your little chubby feet.
I love watching you sleep.
I love watching you eat.
I love hearing you sing. Off-key.
I love you. I love you. I love you.
Happy birthday.

Mad Barking

My heart always beats faster whenever Jack gets into one of those mad barking states. It means there's someone on our property. Nico looks at me with big saucer eyes and Izzy cries with a panicked face. This morning, it was only a deer. No biggie. Then I saw the other 7 deer on our front lawn. Why here? There's nothing yummy in our yard... The kids went from alarm and fright to high excitement at seeing the deer.

Life anew: FORWARD Facing

Life became 3 times easier after I moved the children's seats forward facing. I lasted as long as I could. 23 months. The last month became truly unbearable, then happiness returned.

Home made toy planters

This made me smile. 
Make funny flower pots 
with random house/garage junk.

It could be a good rainy day project with the kids.
