Joe brought home these beautiful narcissus one day. One of my kids took the picture. It is still winter, but spring is not too far away.

Really, spring is not that far away. I’m already late starting some of the seeds. I found this organizer at the thrift store and got to work organizing my seed collection. Now I just have to find some potting soil.

Peter organized the cars by color. It turned into a wonderful opportunity to take pictures. That child has admitted to liking complaining, by the way. NOT COOL.

Isn’t this kid cute? He is finally starting to talk more. He will be four very soon.


I forgot how hard it is to have a toddler. This boy can be happy, loving, cuddly and it fun to watch him explore his world. We try to understand his little words, enjoy watching his funny dances and see his expressions.

But he also spends a lot of his day asking for things that he is not old enough to play with, throwing little tantrums, needing more snacks (he is a string cheese connoisseur), and trying to do things that result in injury. Like climbing up on stools and finding knives. Luckily mommy exercises constant vigilance. Or tries to, and is just very ready for nap time when it comes.
