We found Gretchen snuggled with a gnome on Grace's bed. Clearly, she's in the right family! xo

{This Moment} An Ice Cream Run In March

{This Moment} - A Soule Mama Friday ritual. A single  photo - no words- capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you are inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments section for all to find and see. We wish you a lovely weekend! xo

Growing

For years we have wanted a growth chart, and after much searching we were thrilled to come across this gorgeous one created by Phoebe Wahl. A growth chart with fairies, gnomes, butterflies. flowers and birds is one that we could not pass up! We gave it to the girls at Christmas and quickly found the perfect spot for it, where it has hung (unblemished) ever since. This past Saturday, after our weekend chores were completed, I finally took a moment to chart the girls heights from their first birthday onward. It was incredible to see their heights on the chart, and to see how much they grew from year to year. The girls got such a kick out of seeing how tall they were on their first birthday all the way up to how tall they are now (and how they really don't have all that much more to grow before they are the same height as me)! xo

"Call Me Wonder Woman!"

 Yesterday afternoon found Emma in a mood to create. A little red felt, a little tape and an instant Wonder Woman costume was made. From that moment she was no longer Emma. "Call me Wonder Woman!" she requested, with a flourish of her cape for added emphasis. 

This morning, shortly before Jazzercise class was to begin I received this text from Dave: 

 We figure it won't be long before she's requesting her own Invisible Jet, too.

And yes, friends, even Wonder Woman has morning lessons that need doing.

I love how much Wonder Woman is loved in our house. I love that with just a few simple items that a Wonder Woman costume was crafted. I've always wondered when they would finally choose to dress at Wonder Woman for Halloween, though, really, why dress up as something that you always are?!

Saint David's Day

Some coloring pages and some daffodils made for a simple and lovely Saint David's Day today. Hopefully next year we'll add in some daffodil crafts and Welsh Cakes to our celebration, too. Happy Saint David's Day to all who celebrate!  xo
