The eye of the beholder

An artist can never have enough glue or googly eyes.

"I willy willy like glue!"

P.S. At the end of the evening there was NO glue left and two pieces of paper stuck to the dining room table. Yes it was a masterpiece!

Wisdom of the ages

Georgia: "I still love you Mommy, even when I'm frustrated"

Me: "same here"

If everyone could speak as freely as a two (almost three) year old the world would be a better place.

P.S. I never found out WHY she was frustrated.

Sweet dreams sweet girl

This is our sweet girl having sweet dreams.

Upon closer inspection. . .

this is what she was sleeping on top of,

presumably this stuff was giving her those sweet dreams.

This array of goodies includes a get well letter,

pinewood derby car circa the early 80's (thanks Uncle Tim!),

a squeeky toy that is 30 years old (thanks Aunt Lindsay),

and a tub of Canadian diaper cream.

I now live with not one pack rat but TWO.

And NO the other pack rat is not me.

Dirty Laundry

I  wish that I had some really good gossip to share.

Or an old family secret that would shock your pants off.

But I don't.

The only dirty laundry I have is beneath Georgia, and in the closet, and on the bed, and on the floor.

Yes I have a lot of dirty laundry.

Just not the interesting kind.

Seems like heaven

I was reflecting on our "Family Fun Friday" again

and thinking about how lucky we are to have each other.

My sweet little family AND my big extended family

make my life complete.

My last living grandparent passed away on Wednesday.

He was the grandpa that took me fishing, taught me how to water ski, and gave me a love for all things nature.

He would have loved "Family Fun Friday" in the mountains.

I'm so glad we have glimpses of heaven on Earth.

 

Last Friday

This is what we did last Friday.

Colorado is a beautiful place to live indeed.
