First lesson

The pepperoni pizza song is being played and played and played again!  Can't wait to hear Morgan Leigh on the piano!

Dearest friend

Oh how busy we have gotten in this day to day stuff.  I don't get to see very much of this smile, but when I do, I treasure it.  Thankful that we can pick up right where we need to and blessed that God has given me her friendship.  Happy Birthday Mere, it only seems right that we celebrate you on Valentine's!

Wait...

We went to a Chuck E. Cheese birthday party today.  AG saw this other mom there and said, "I know her".  I did not know her, not at all.  So a few minutes pass and someone else realized that it is the lady from "worst cooks in America".  Anna Grace had watched it with Gigi.  I introduced ourselves to ask for a picture and this lady was just precious!  She got down and spoke directly to AG and told her to watch the upcoming episode.  She told me she is enjoying her 15 minutes of fame as well.

Valentine's boxes

Earlier this week I saw these cute mailboxes at Target with the girls.  I asked several times if they didn't want one.  AG said but we ALWAYS make them.  So they found some on Pinterest that no one else in class was making (Of course they aren't because who else is this crazy!)

Lots of cutting and mod podge!

Today Matt is at a Men's conference for church and so I guess this is what we did with our WHOLE day.  They are pleased as punch though so it's all worth it.  AG has a little camper and ML made a train.

50's night

Tonight the kiddos got to dress up for cotillion in their poodle skirts.  It was so fun to see them dance and enjoy themselves.

Here is their whole group!

Middle School

Everyone else we know got their acceptance letters yesterday.  AG was patient to wait an extra day.  It's worth it too!  She was accepted into the Biomedical Science Prep program.  We are excited to be off on a new adventure and cannot fathom that we will have a middle school aged girl soon.

Ice Cream snack

Anna Grace had to stay late after school today.  ML said she was starving and asked if she could have ice cream.  I don't think she thought we would.  Happy Monday!

Prayer journals

Matt has the vestry retreat today.  The girls are helping me make prayer journals for one of our outreach programs.  I love their willingness to pitch in.

I love that their hands have touched an prayed for these special women too.
