Pot

After learning how to use Mod Podge from my teacher friend, Nikki Wixo, I decided to give it a try at home.

I decided to create a picture pot and I think it turned out pretty cool. I used a bunch of fun pictures I have kept of the boys. I am going to do one more for another plant that needs to be repotted into a larger pot.

Here is the result:

Thanks Nikki for introducing me to the world of Mod Podging!

Flower

I have a little bit sad and a little bit sweet story today. I have not posted this yet because it just made me so sad. Our plant that produced the red flowers has seemingly died. I am not sure what happened but after it was done blooming, it died. I keep hoping it will come back to life because I have formed an attachment/connection to the plant.

After Sophie was born, my cousin Kerri sent us a petite white rose bush. I decided to plant it in a pot until this spring when I would move it outside. It was January and I did not want it to die.
Fast forward to Sunday, Mother's Day...

We went away to the lake for some quiet alone time and kayaking. When we arrived home on Mother's Day, there was a beautiful white rose blooming on the bush. This was the first flower to bloom and I am absolutely certain Sophie was telling me to have a good Mother's Day and that she loves me.

Where flowers bloom, so does HOPE :)

Happy Birthday

We celebrated Brendan and Carter's 8th and 6th birthdays yesterday. It was a nice break from our reality and a good time with family. Morgan is even getting to the point where I am pretty sure she likes me and even Bill :)

What happened?

What happened to my cute adorable little puppy???

Now he has taken over our lives!!!
