We spent the afternoon with my girl, KP, and her munchkins. Swimming and Skylanders was the main course. She brought me a bday present and I couldn't resist opening it this evening. The coffee cup is right up my alley and the sparkly note pad is TDF. I would have loved to show off all the colors but my photog skills made everything look orange.

Pink is the color of love. I get so busy taking care of everyone else that I often forget to take care of myself. Pink roses are hanging out around the house as a reminder to do just that. Make time to take care of me :)

218: Dream Boards

The kids and I sat down and made up some dream boards tonight. This one took the task really seriously. We all had a good time drawing things we would like to have happen for ourselves or the family. After we finished we shared what we had drawn, also his idea. It was so much fun we are going to continue to do it every month. It will be fun to see how their "dreams" change.
