Feeling SO blessed and so very happy! :)
I know I could feel overwhelmed, this winter has been super eventful, but I just feel blessed. I know someday that the chaos will slow down as the house gradually empties, so I try to enjoy and embrace all of the craziness. Sometimes I shut myself in my room and take a breather, sometimes I take the time to read a good book. I'm grateful for the help, seen and unseen, that I have been given.
In the meantine….my sweet daughter is learning the art of embroidery. {gasp!!!}
She's so amazing and will make beautiful things of her own!! I love nothing more than passing down these rare arts - our young girls need to learn hand sewing, crochet, knitting, and such. We need to keep these beautiful traditions alive!
Baby Girl turned 4. {sniff……hold me……}
Like every little girl all over the world, she's obsessed with Frozen, particularly Elsa. She loves the frozeny-type and I think it's because she was born in the middle of winter in Michigan!! haha. She also likes characters with white-blonde hair and blue eyes like her. :)
Remember last year's Periwinkle birthday?
Puh-recious. Goodness, I love this crazy, fun, adorable little girl!
My heart is breaking because she is growing way too fast - faster than most kids, I think.
And….just because it was so stunning to me the other day….every evening, the sunlight comes through my living room window, creating a drippy, sunny glow. I lived in the gray darkness for so long that it's still a novelty to have buttery-golden sunshine flood my home. It's something I look forward to every day!! I am hoping that I never grow tired of it.
Whelp…kids coming home soon, so I better get some more chores done!!
Have a happy day, everyone! I hope to post some fun projects soon!!!

Hey, i'm a new reader of your blog, and i'm loving your posts, please, post ever when you have time, and post more pictures of you daughter too, she's so cute, indeed, she looks like Elsa from Frozen. Happy birthday little girl!
We just had a frozen party at our house too! Even my 20 month old can sing "let it Go." You've inspired me to teach my 9 year to cross-stitch. I'm not very crafty, but I want my girls to know how to sew. :)
