"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

Princess Party


Chloe celebrated her good friend Erin's 6th birthday today. Erin had a Princess Tea Party and princess atire was required, of course! Here is Chloe getting ready to head out the door to celebrate! The funny thing is that she has never gotten into the "princess" thing and was embarassed to go outside in this dress! We had to stop at Target on the way to the party and Chloe was upset that I wouldn't let her take the dress off in the car before we went in! Hee hee! Moms have to get their kicks some how, right?!
Mosaic Mirror Update: The auction was last night (we didn't attend) and I heard back today that they sold for $500!
