Okay. You probably don’t get the title of this Sunday Snapshot. But by the end, you will. Promise. As you can see, Jude was the man today. Because well… he was game. And he didn’t need a haircut. And he hadn’t spilled anything on his shirt at lunch. Really though, that’s just kinda the way Jude rolls. Pretty much game… Read More
first day of school
Mission accomplished. Just 179 more mornings to go. Everyone was riding high on adrenaline this morning, so really things went much better than I had anticipated. That, and the fact that I had followed y’alls advice. And had done pretty much everything – besides put the kids on the bus – last night. It was pretty stinkin’ dark this morning,… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {flashback}
Y’all are gonna have to bear with me. If you were around in the fall, you might remember that I posted pictures of my kids on their first day of school. And I apologize in advance. But the mama in me has to go there again. Because Friday marked the last day of the school year. Just look at tiny… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {the kite}
I didn’t even have to work at this one. At church this morning, Jude received a kite as a “prize”. Between the time this kite was placed into Jude’s sweaty little hands and the time we arrived home, this kite was brought up in conversation no less than 2,489 times. So, after lunch we went outside to give this kite… Read More
dinner tonight.
Just keepin’ it real. This is what Sophie Lulu ate for dinner tonight. Admittedly, I am still riding on the coattails of the homemade Memorial Day dinner I whipped up yesterday. That took me a ridiculously long time to make. But still. Macaroni and cheese? Out of the box? For shame. But some nights, especially Monday nights, I’m just happy… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {Sophie Lulu}
Yesterday was Sophie’s day. Okay. Not really Sophie’s day. Sophie’s afternoon. Okay. Sophie’s rapidly disappearing-so-we-had-to-hustle-to-get-these-pictures-in afternoon. But all’s well that ends well. Right? Well, Sophie thought so. She happily jumped up and grabbed her shoes before the words were even out of my mouth, “Want to put on your new shirt and take some pictures?” And even though it was… Read More
picture day
For the second time in one school year, it’s picture day. For me? Forms to fill out, checks to write, outfits to ready. But for the kids? It’s all fun. And seeing them so darn jazzed this morning… well, I just couldn’t help grabbing my camera just to capture the day. The girls chose to wear their Chinese silks. Dalton… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {silks}
I had intended to let the girls wear their Chinese silks to school on Thursday. The first day of Chinese New Year. But it didn’t quite turn out that way. I did, however, manage to get my rear in gear and get them outfitted on Friday. The second day of Chinese New Year. Why split hairs… it’s a 15 day… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {celebrating Sophie}
Although she turned seven last Thursday, Sophie had to wait until Sunday to celebrate her big day officially. But I think it was worth the wait to have her daddy home. And her mama restored to sanity. We returned to the spot where we celebrated Dalton’s birthday, at Sophie’s request. The other kiddos were pretty jazzed as well. The upside… Read More
Sophie’s day
I begged her not do it. But she went ahead and did it anyway. Today, Sophie turned seven. How is it that seven seems about 25 years older than six? Suddenly, she’s not so little. In fact, she’s borderline grown-up. Soon, she’ll lose her top teeth. And stop asking to wear her hair in pigtails. But what a beautiful young… Read More
