Since my first born arrived sleep became a big deal to me. Sleep for the babies and children and mommies and daddies alike

Being sick stinks, no doubt about it. I’ve had the stomach flu for three days and couldn’t keep anything down for half that time

Turns out, my prayer for you wasn’t simply out of a fear of friendlessness from my background but from a discerning heart that knows you need a little extra help in the friend-making department for some reason. so I don’t know why I feel so compelled to pray for friends for you, but I know now that in the past couple weeks I’ve been close to tears at the obvious love your school friends bestow on you daily. You’ve been coming home with little gifts and pieces of art from these friends of yours:  Hazel, Tenley, Tabitha, Tina, Grant, and Rory. Yesterday I won’t forget this prayer Maisy because you’re only four and have a lifetime of friend-making and friend-keeping to go, but I feel so encouraged in your friendship adventures so far.

This year the calendar was easily filled as built in events like Maisy’s preschool concert are give-ins. Some of my favorite things on the calendar are Christmas cookie decorating with friends, Christmas lights drive with cocoa and popcorn, picture in front of the Christmas tree What I love about my tempered approach this year, is that every day gets to be a little extra special and it encourages me to spend a little extra quality time with my girls. What are some of your favorite family traditions and/or things you have planned for the family this year?
