I spy a few good things

bw bedroom

Mornings, which are more like afternoons at my house, are a mixture of good and bad, depending on what side of the bed I wake up on. Mostly, I’ll admit, I wake up cranky, but I always wake up to two talkative kids in bed with me. They like to roll around and giggle and play. The best part is they love each other so much (though you can’t always tell) and if one wakes up before they other, they can’t resist waking the other up immediately.

Homemade birthday cards are good things. I got some of the best ever this year. They were so detailed and colorful.

I loved that the little ones’ cards had evidence of big sister’s helpful hand.

This gift from my husband, the iPhone 4 in a turquoise case makes me happy, and my Erin Condren planner is a very good thing.

Recess on these splendidly warm days are very good things. I love peeking out my screen door to see these four playing together.

What good things have you spied this week?

    “Mornings, which are more like afternoons at my house…” Oh, my…That has so been us lately–even worse with the time change. Thank you for making me not feel so alone.

    So much sweetness. Those cards are the bomb and you make me want to cry with your morning/afternoons. Signed, Up at 6:50 which almost kills me daily

    I love that last photo. As a home schooling mom I too have photos of my bunch just being together taken with a camera pressed against the window pane. I don’t know what words they are saying (about their teacher?) but its a sight I don’t take for granted and never want to forget.

    1.) WOW, on those cards! Fancy! 
    2.) Brynne’s “I be nice all day and not mean.” *snort*  I think that is probably what I should write in the birthday cards I give to my boys.
    3.) Turquoise- yay! I hate that my iPhone case is pink and black. Blech. I like a certain shade of pink with certain things, but generally I like blues and greens and purples. If someone has a baby girl, I always buy non-pink gifts. I think I’m prejudiced.
    4.) That last picture… what a perfect snapshot. I am so drawn to it. Lovely.
