Thank goodness for great pedicures, great books, and great friends. My good friend Emily got some girls together for pedicures. If you have never had one, I so strongly encourage you to get one! This was only like my third one, but if I had the extra money I would get one once a month during the summer. A true, no matter what, night or day kind of friend is a rare find. Emily is one of those. I am lucky to have her. She brought me this lovely book:






It is full of great sewing projects. It has been so long since I have sewn, but I would like to start again. Maybe someday I will have some things to offer in my own etsy shop! I have been reading this book:

This book was apparently written for me. At least it is proven to be absolutely perfect for this time of my life. I am finding things to highlight on nearly every page. The book is based on Psalm 23. I am really loving this book. Its about releasing the burdens you were never intended to bear...its incredible. This morning the girls and I sat outside on the deck. Me with my coffee and this book, Brooklyn with her fingernail polish. Then we laid on a blanket under a tree. Charlotte just loves being outside. I wouldn't mind starting every day that way.

I took Brooklyn to the pool this afternoon. She had a blast! My mom even stole away from work to join us poolside. I just love being with my mom. When she allows herself to just be, just relax and stop working, she is so much fun. I am very sunburned. I hope to take Brooklyn and Charlotte once a week.

I am going to have pictures soon...of our new addition, of Brooklyn's first T-ball game, of our new home. I haven't had a lot of time to upload pictures, but I will soon.

take care, friends.
