    Hahahaha.....Bless them.

    I just adore (especially in my late 20's.....I think the maternal clocks turns on) how the most simply things makes children happy and excited.

    Children learn from us but really it's fair to say that we can learn something from them too.

    Congratulations on your 100 post Cathie.

    I love this photo. Do you find bits of tupperware around the garden too? I occasionally need to order them out into the wilderness to gather up these items!

    Adorable, tongs are among the favorite toys in our house as well. I have purchased a special little set just for Little Guy, he doesn’t use them, he wants mine – of course!
