Sweet Candy Girl
Skittles were a brand new candy the year my second baby was born. I ate a ton of them. In fact, I thought they were some kind of fruit group–citrus and berry or something. So when my little Lyndi was born I wasn’t a bit surprised to find that she came with her own fireworks…so to speak. Sugar induced, no doubt…and completely my own doing.
Giggling uncontrollably in the Mother’s Day program and cutting her own bangs the day before family pictures–we never knew what to expect from this one. She’d find any possible excuse for a party, be it Groundhog’s Day or Harry Potter’s Birthday–we simply had to celebrate. Still do, come to think of it.
Happy Birthday this week Lyndi!!
I’ll bring the Skittles.

Baby Monster
This moment…
A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from our lives.
A simple, special, memorable moment.
A moment I want to pause, savor and keep close to my heart.
If you are inspired to do the same–leave us a link in the comments.
Happy weekend friends.

Watch “Dane’s Wish”
Just a Hint…
of the fabric frenzy going on around here. Oh, the thread is really flying…
and you know I can never keep secrets to myself.
This little project was suppose to be a surprise for the babies birthdays–Chompy’s 2nd, and Lily and Beck’s 3rd.
But I guess I’m having too much fun sewing, stuffing, cutting…
tacking, stitching, embellishing…
buttoning, strapping, ziz-zagging…
(never mind wanting to play with all this cuteness myself–sheesh!)
to stop and actually give the presents to those sweet patient little souls.
Hopefully, by the end of the week, I’ll show you the finished projects.
And if the babies are lucky–they may just get them before…
high school…
perhaps.
heh.

Question of the Day
Exactly how does one get ball point pen off a black and white photo?
:\
So, April just sent me an email that said:
“Kindalikethis…”
Smarty pants.
In the next installment of “Techno-challenged Grammy” we’ll be wiping the baby’s chin. ha!
And just like that, Jillian writes:
“I fixed a scratch on the original photo as well as the chin thing. See what you think.”
What I think is…
Where the heck did I get all these brilliant children?!!
What a blessing…

Unsuspecting Wood Sprites
Hard to believe, I know, but these charming Fairy-folk were magically captured in the meadow one day, while romping…
and playing…
taking sweet calmness…
and wild animal behavior…
in flitting, gentle turns.
So, my dear friends–if you find yourself in the woods, or the forest, or the meadow, any time soon–and it seems to you, unusually quiet…
we know why.
I’ll give you a hint…
We…
have captured…
all
the
Sprites.
