Ordinary Days


I know, I know, she looks so old! It's the piggies that do it.

After a swim meet.  We've had a lame swim team season because two meets were 'stormed' out.

Our evening bike rides, my favorite part of summer:



Some good quick blog posts I've read this year and loved:

1. If I Could Only Offer One Piece of Advice To Young Moms by Melanie Jean Juneau.   So simple, so true.

2. A Letter To My Boys by Renee Robinson.  A thousand times, YES.

3. Bucket List by Katrina Kenison  "The question rose up hot and fierce as a reprimand in my chest: “Had I loved my life enough?”

  2. Have you read 52 Things Kids Need From a Mom by Angela Thomas? It is without a doubt one of the BEST, if not the BEST parenting/Momma books I have read. The chapters are only a few pages, so easy to read, and great advice. I want to read all of her books now. I have a feeling you could have probably written a similar book!

  9. Can I just say, I love that you call pigtails "piggies"? That's what they are called in my house too, and it makes me smile. Have a lovely day!
