Sometimes you have to accept that some days aren't meant for DIY projects and cleaning. Ok, I did do a little cleaning this morning but nothing major. With one at the high school and two at the preschool and doctors appointments for Sally and me, I decided to just forget about the painting and enjoy the beautiful weather.
We sat in the grass, jumped on the trampoline, played at the park, attempted to chalk dye some hair (I know, I know, that's a DIY project), and learned about Pearl Harbor through Kaci's English presentation. Oh yeah! Violet and I also cut down a branch that was hanging too low over the sidewalk and annoying me when I mow!!
We have a wonderful toddler park just a few blocks from our house that the kids love! We were the only people there and it was so fun! Sally loved touching the wood chips! She didn't even try to eat one, what a good girl!
Violet and Lucy loved playing in the houses and i was no longer able to deny that they're growing up when they had to duck to get in!
Do you have an older child that likes to still spend time with you? It seems like so many teens shut their parents and siblings out. We are so blessed to have Kaci in our family! She provides countless hours of playing fun for the little girls and many laughs for us with her happiness!
When Dad comes knocking on the play house door, you had better answer! I have lots to say about this picture but nothing I write could express how happy it makes me feel to see Jeremy playing with the girls.
This day could have easily made me feel like I did nothing but these are the days that the girls will never forget!
The pink chalk hair was an epic fail, but the memories we made will be long lasting!!
What did you do today? Have you ever chalked your hair? If your kids asked you to try it, would you? Don't forget to play a little bit!
