This girl has my heart.
She’s the best kid I could have ever imagined even asking the Lord for.
She’s a picture of grace and mercy and forgiveness – bountiful in each.
I really, really wish I were more like her.
Lord, help me to be the mommy she deserves.

Today was housecleaning Thursday combined with mowing Thursday. Everything looks spic and span…and I’m beat.

Wryder has been slowly repaying Sawyer for all of the care she’s given him over the past year.
He’s got a long way to go but it is so much fun to see them play so much together!
****************
Sawyer has figured out how to get in the crib with Wryder via various toys in the toy room.
Thankfully, he hasn’t managed to get out………yet.

In order to save a few dollars, I starch and press all of Wrexy’s dress shirts here at home. After I’ve ironed them, I always stick little notes in the pockets. Nothing too elaborate, but a little note of some sort to make him laugh or to let him know how special he is to me; it’s a simple way I can show some love. Sawyer has recently gotten in on the action. She’ll color and decorate the note paper and then write her message and tell me what it says so I can write it out to make sure daddy can understand it. Wrex sent me this pic the other day…
That girl loves the sale barn…and that daddy loves that girl.

Our sweet neighbor and friend had a birthday today and I whipped up this cute door hanger for their baseball loving family.
I had seen a version of this floating around Pinterest and I thought it was ADORABLE. Turns out, it was an easy naptime project!

We popped into the local dollar store yesterday and in a basket of clearance items were some Disney princess stick on earrings for $0.40! We bought ’em.
I remember my grandpa buying me stick on earrings when I was a little girl and I loved them! My parents didn’t really have any major rules on getting ears pierced but I was scared to death to do it until about 6th grade. Thankfully, I had those fashionable, sticky, sparkly shapes to get me through…

We’re headed to Denver tomorrow to celebrate the graduation of two young ladies who we’ve had the pleasure of doing life with. To think I first met them when they were 7 and 8 makes me feel OLD. Why can’t that danged clock slow down…
Happy weekend to you!
